DANVILLE — Shiloh United Church of Christ began as a congregation of the German Reformed Church in 1856, with the first building being built and dedicated in December of 1862. It has always proudly claimed its association with the larger church as it became the Reformed Church in the United States, then the Evangelical and Reformed Church, and, in 1957, the United Church of Christ.

The building has been remodeled and renovated several times over the years. Improvements have included an elevator, air conditioning, remodeling of the educational wing, improvements to the parking lot and nearby additional parking. The building is handicap accessible.

Transportation is available on Sundays for the 10:30 a.m. service. The bus is handicap accessible. Call the church office at 275-1943 if you would like a ride to church.

The congregation begins worship services with the expression, “No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here.” Members do their best to live up to the saying. The congregation has always been a visible and very active presence in the community of Danville, dedicated to being a servant to the community and to the world, living out the gospel of Christ in all it does.
