Ecumenical Church of Pueblo West

About Ecumenical Church of Pueblo West

When folks began moving into what is now Pueblo West, Colorado there weren’t a lot of options for where to attend church. What was available wasn’t particularly welcoming to folks who were not from their particular denomination. As they began to pull folks together they realized that folks were coming from a lot of different backgrounds. Some were Lutheran, some Methodists, some were Baptist and some were Presbyterian. When they went to various groups the only two who would sponsor a new church that was willing to welcome folks from such diverse backgrounds without insisting that they change were the American Baptists and the Presbyterians. So with the help of those two denominations a church was started that not only welcomed all believers in Jesus, but also encouraged folks to share their beliefs and backgrounds in a loving, caring way. The term “ecumenical” means the same as “catholic” or universal. In the Apostles Creed folks say, We believe in one, holy catholic (universal or ecumenical) church. We live that out. We have a wonderful mix of backgrounds and theologies in our church. It reflects the whole Body of Christ, which is what we are!
