Federated Church

About this church

The Federated Church of Morris is a union congregation connected to both the United Church of Christ and the United Methodist Church. Sunday worship begins at 9:30 a.m. and streams through the church website and Facebook. Its current shared schedule alternates selected services between Federated Church and First Lutheran, with fellowship following worship and arts and crafts for children after the children’s sermon on Federated-hosted Sundays. Because the location changes on that published calendar, checking the week’s listing is a useful part of planning a visit.

Federated’s vision is to be a vibrant, diverse Christian community that grows in faith and brings people together to serve. Communion is open to everyone, and its presentation varies between elements passed through the pews and people gathering around the table, honoring both denominational traditions. The Called to Care ministry trains lay volunteers to visit or phone homebound members, welcome first-time worshipers, and support people facing grief, health concerns, transitions, or pastoral emergencies. Community service, women’s fellowship, youth and education programs, online archived worship, and an accessible location across from the Morris schools round out a church identity centered on connection and practical care.
