United Church of Christ
The United Church of Christ (UCC) is a mainline Protestant Christian denomination based in the United States. It is a United Protestant denomination that formed as the result of a merger of the General Council of the Congregational Christian Churches, the Evangelical and Reformed Church, and the Afro-Christian Convention, denominations which were themselves the result of earlier unions of churches in the Anabaptist, Congregational, Continental Reformed, Lutheran, and Restorationist traditions.
