Welcome
Dear Members and Friends of Edwards UCC,
During this period of physical distancing, we still continue social connecting! We invite you to participate in our Sunday services, Coffee Hour, and Bible Study via Facebook Live and Zoom. Church has never been about the building and we hope that you will join us in faith and spirit. Login instructions for Zoom are automatically sent to members and regular visitors. If you would like to be included, please email secretary@edwards-ucc.org.
The Caregiving program is one of the strengths of Edwards and continues. Pastor Lisa, Mary Ostrom, and other members of the congregation are here to help any member in need. Please reach out to Pastor Lisa or Mary with prayer requests or need for more practical assistance such as grocery shopping and delivery. You can call/text Pastor Lisa at 563-468-1531 or email her at pastor@edwards-ucc.org or lgaston4@gmail.com. Mary can be called at 563-386-0618, called/texted at 563-514-9189 or emailed at maryostrom@mchsi.com.
For the safety of our members and friends, all worship services and other programming will be virtual through the end of May. Our services will be posted on our YouTube channel at 10:15 each Sunday morning. Please join us through the link at left or by searching Edwards UCC Davenport on YouTube. Then join us on Zoom for Coffee Hour at 11:00.
Finally, thank you for your continued financial support which is so important in order to continue the church's missions and operations. You can mail checks to the church, make one-time or recurring gifts by going to the "Giving" tab on the left, use the Give Plus mobile app found in the App store under Edwards Congregational UC, or use our brand-new Text to Give option by sending a text to 833-914-0783, putting a dollar amount in the text box. You will receive a return text asking to complete the transaction. Instructions for all these options can be found on the Giving page.
