Announcements

The Church Board has approved the installation of a commemorative window to mark our church’s bicentennial in June 2017.  The projected cost is $5,000.  If you are interested in being part of this project, make your contributions out to The First Congregational Church and designate them “Bicentennial Window”.

This morning, we begin a series of various teaching topics that originate from the congregation.  Over the next several months, out “Ask the Pastor” series will cover such subjects as death, prayer, and women in the ministry, as well as a brief study of Jude.  May these summertime lessons lead us in a refreshing, stimulating season of study and worship in preparation for Exodus in 2017.
