The new issue of United Church News, the newsletter of the United Church of Christ, is now online.
It includes a story on a new advertising campaign the denomination will launch March 1.
The debut 30-second commercial stars two muscle-bound "bouncers" who stand guard outside a fabled, picturesque church where they discriminately choose which persons will be permitted to attend Sunday services. Then a tag line touts the UCC's different approach: "No matter who you are, no matter where you are on life's journey, you are welcome at a United Church of Christ congregation."
I’m excited to see the new spots. Hopefully, they will help more people know the inclusive nature of our denomination.
