| Additional Information | The United Church Board for Homeland Ministries (UBCHM) existed from 1962-2000. It was the administration group that oversaw the United Church of Christ’s home missions and services. The United Church of Christ formed in 1957 when the Evangelical and Reformed Church united with the General Council of the Congregational Christian Churches. (The latter traces its history to the Congregational Church, which itself is descended from Puritan settlers.) UBCHM combined the boards of each mission from each church into one organization. The UCC still maintains varied ministries at the national, regional, and local level. In addition, the UCC has involved itself in traditionally liberal social justice positions. |
