WHO WE ARE
Pursuing Flourishing Together
To grow diverse communities and develop Christ followers who seek the common good.
Union Church is an inclusive, multicultural community of Jesus-followers in the heart of Pflugerville and North Austin. We believe love has no boundaries, and that every person — regardless of background, story, or questions — is created in God’s image with immeasurable value. We are committed to doing life together across differences, working for the flourishing of our neighbors, and following Jesus in a way that brings healing, hope, and transformation to the world around us.
Our Vision
Our Story
Located in one of the most diverse areas of the Austin metro, Union Church began as a campus of a multi-site church before becoming an independent congregation in 2024. We stepped into independence with the same commitment: to become a place of belonging, curiosity, and faith — where everyone is invited to follow Jesus and live out His heart for unity, justice, and reconciliation.
Our Approach
Our Five Church Distinctives highlight our core community commitments.
-
“In essentials, unity. In non-essentials, liberty. In all things, charity.” In keeping with the witness of the scriptures, the Nicene Creed and the Apostles’ Creed define the essentials of faith in Christ. We commit to hold these creeds in unity while practicing liberty in non-essentials and charity in all things.
-
Union is an inclusive, multicultural church that models its posture after the person of Jesus, who radically loves people. No matter your life story, age, race, culture, sexual orientation, or gender, you can fully participate in the life of the church.
-
We’re all created differently, and each of us adds something valuable to our community and mission. As we seek the transformation of all things, we believe that we can make a greater difference together than apart. As we stand in solidarity with one another, we make room to explore diverse theologies and discern God’s heart together.
-
Union Church will always be a safe place where you can doubt and ask questions without judgement. We believe that following Jesus is not about having all the answers, but about inviting deeper questions and taking active steps of faith. We maintain a posture of humble curiosity as we seek an integrated faith that is in healthy and dynamic relationship with all aspects of our humanity - spiritual, physical, intellectual, relational, and emotional.
-
There is no limit to leadership opportunities and roles on the basis of gender. We see, recognize, and affirm the leadership gifts of each individual among our community.
Our Statement of Faith
This church accepts the Bible as the revealed will of God and the all-sufficient rule of faith and practice. For the purpose of maintaining unity, we adhere to the historic statements of the Nicene Creed and the Apostles’ Creed.
-
The Scriptures both Old and New Testament reflect the particular contexts, cultures, and humanity of their authors and are the inspired revelation of God to humanity and the final authority of all matters in faith and conduct.
-
There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. These three are coequal and co-eternal .
-
The Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God and is one with God. The Scriptures declare his incarnation among humanity, sinless life, miracles, death and resurrection, and ascension to the right hand of God.
-
Humanity’s only hope is through Jesus Christ. Salvation is by faith through grace alone.
-
In partnership with and response to the Holy Spirit, followers of Jesus, rooted in grace, continually develop an awareness of our complicity in the brokenness of our world and in our lives, take on a posture of repentance, which is turning away from chaos and evil and turning towards the ways of God, and embrace a life of discipleship to Jesus.
-
The Church is the representative of Jesus on earth and is to carry out the Great Commission and the Great Commandment, that we might see more of heaven here on earth.
-
When creation is renewed, all of God’s children will reign forever in the new heaven and the new earth. The resurrection of those who follow Jesus and the redemption of all things is our shared hope.
