ANNOUNCEMENTS
During Advent, our worship services will commemorate the season with candles, readings, banners, and special messages. This year’s theme is “NOW IN FLESH APPEARING”.

Let’s prepare our hearts together for this special season.

At First Congregational Church, we’re celebrating almost 200 years of Congregational life and faith. A lot has happened since our church was founded in 1817, but some things never change.
We remain committed to our vision to glorify God through Christ-centered worship, vigorous Bible teaching, the care and edification of God’s people, outreach to our neighbors, and the proclamation of the gospel to other cultures around the world.
Our church covenant concludes with these words –
“We agree to seek with the help of the Holy Spirit the unity, purity and glory of the church in doctrine and life, to the praise of our covenant-keeping God.”
We think that’s a vision worth celebrating.
