First Christian Church, Fullerton CA is an inclusive, progressive, Christian Church.  We strive to love God with our heart, mind, soul, and strength and to love our neighbors as ourselves.  As an Open and Affirming Congregation, we are committed to being a community in which all people are loved — women and men, young and old, all sexual orientations and gender identities, all classes and abilities. We are a community in which all people learn to love by following the example of Jesus and through the Spirit of God. We move to answer God’s call for justice particularly in the areas of care for the earth, the challenges for women and children, poverty and hunger and immigration. We seek to do this work in cooperation with other people of faith. Some say we “get dirty for Jesus” as a way of conveying the hands‑on mission orientation of many of our faith communities. We honor our heritage as a movement for Christian unity by cooperating and partnering with other faith communities to work for bringing about wholeness – healing and justice – in the world. This is what it means to be “ecumenical.”  We also work together with many different faith communities in our area that are non-Christian for healing and justice.  This is what it means to be "interfaith."​​
