First Congregational United Church of Christ

What are services like?
Services are approximately one hour in length. A Greeter will welcome you and a friendly usher will give you an order of worship and take you to a seat. We sing heartily and listen attentively for God's Word in Scripture and to the preaching from our 3 pastors on staff and 2 in residence. With Reformed Christians around the world we celebrate two Sacraments: Christian Baptism which takes place during worship by appointment with one of the pastors, and Holy Communion which is offered to all who seek a relationship with Christ, on the first Sunday of the month and at other times throughout the year. There is a Time with our children before they head off to Church School. In worship we confess our need for God's mercy and grace and hear that we are forgiven by God through the work of Christ on the cross. We give serous attention to preaching and prayer. An offering for the ministry and mission of our church and for our work beyond our walls is received each week.

What is the community like?
Our congregation spans a wide spectrum of ages and socio-economic backgrounds. We are a vital and vibrant congregation eager to welcome visitors and look to helping strangers to become friends. Some wear their "Sunday best" and others come more casually dressed. All are welcome.

What if I'm not a Christian?
We will welcome you warmly and we will be very glad you decided to worship with us. If we can be helpful to you in any way, we will be honored to be of assistance.
