Welcome to Manitowoc Cooperative Ministry... the Heart of the Lakeshore

​Manitowoc Cooperative Ministry--also known as MCM--is a partnership of First Presbyterian Church (PCUSA) and Peace United Church of Christ (UCC), formed in 2017 so our congregations can more effectively be the hands and feet of Christ in Manitowoc.

At MCM we affirm that all people are created imago Dei (in God's image) and are warmly invited to participate fully in our church life, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, ability, socioeconomic status, or any other distinction; we believe Jesus welcomed everyone, and we strive to reflect that same inclusivity in our fellowship.

Certain that God is still speaking to our congregations throughout our combined centuries of witness, and recognizing that we are forever being reformed by God’s spirit, we are always finding new ways of being church--ways that allows us to share our resources in order to provide a common witness of Christ’s love, hospitality, and hope.

We believe that working together is more fruitful than preserving the historic denominational lines that divided us. We believe that when we work together we can best share the peace and justice of God’s beloved community in all the world. Together, we are the Heart of the Lakeshore.
