Welcome!

All are welcome here at Macalester Plymouth United Church. We are a community of peace, love, and justice. We don’t claim to have all the answers, but we ask the questions together. We believe God’s love is big enough for everyone – and we mean everyone.

We belong to two denominations: the Presbyterian Church (USA) and the United Church of Christ.
We welcome and affirm LGBTQ+ folks.
We stand for peace and justice.
We care for the earth and maintain consistent sustainability efforts.
