About the Union Church of Stow Welcome to the Union Church of Stow. We hope you will consider joining us this coming Sunday and checking us out for yourself. Come and see what God is doing in our midst. We provide a safe and friendly place for you and your family to make friends and explore Christian spirituality, wherever you are on your faith journey. Statement of Faith We keep it simple! Our by-laws list the Apostles' Creed as our statement of faith. The Apostle's Creed. I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. Our church was founded by a group of Christians from several different denominational backgrounds who, in looking for common ground, decided to adopt one of the oldest and most widely used statements of Christian faith. That's the one we still proclaim today. Today's congregation also comes from a variety of backgrounds. Groups had been meeting as early as 1891, in folks' homes until our first chapel was built in 1893. Our present church was built in 1904. Also, there are some records that indicate that some of these groups may have been meeting as early as 1839. If you are asking, what is "the communion of the saints" or you're unsure about "the resurrection of the body", maybe it's the right time to explore these things and the Union Church of Stow is a good place to start.
