First Congregational United Church of Christ

About Us

We are a small church in a small town. Our congregation is a "church family." We help each other; we support each other; we laugh together and cry together. Children, adults and elders are very welcome. On the first Sunday of the month, the children begin in Church School and join their parents in the sanctuary for Communion. On other Sundays, the children begin in worship and then are dismissed to their Church School class.
