As a church, we seek to be an inclusive and supportive place for our community. As Christians, we are commanded to feed, visit, clothe and support one another in all seasons and conditions of life. We seek to do this.
Roxbury Church voted to become a W.I.S.E. congregation on October 13, 2024, a program of our denomination, the United Church of Christ.
WISE: Welcoming – Inclusive – Supportive – Engaged
With it, we seek to have an atmosphere that focuses on how we can be welcoming, inclusive, supportive, and engaged with those who are affected by mental health challenges. We will do this through education, awareness, and supportive actions.
