Council & Committees

Memorial United Church of Christ is a congregation that has authority over its own business. We are part of the United Church of Christ - a national denomination. The UCC has a statewide organization called the Wisconsin Conference. We are also part of a regional group known as the Southwest Wisconsin Association. While we have close relationships with the regional, state and national levels of our denomination and work closely with them in many ways, we are an independent entity.

The congregation meeting as a body is the final authority on all church business. (Here are the minutes from our annual congregational meeting on Jan. 24, 2010.) The congregation elects a council, which runs the business of the church on an on-going basis. There are numerous committees that handle the day-to-day work of the church.
