About Us

At Union, we exist for one thing – to unite people with purpose by helping them know God, find freedom, discover purpose, and make a difference. We are Spirit-led, enjoyable, generous, purpose-driven, and excellent. That has been our goal for over 20 years and has guided us every single day. We are one church meeting in 8 different locations and while we're amazed by what God is doing, we aren’t stopping here. What happens next will be beyond what we can imagine. Our vision has always been to impact lives by making church as accessible as possible to as many people as possible. That’s why leading people isn’t just an expectation; it’s a necessity. It’s a cornerstone of our culture. It’s why we’re always seeking leaders—leaders like you—to bring your skills to Union. We want to help you become the person God made you to be.
