Service for Mary Ellen
Services for Mary Ellen Bryner, who passed away on July 11th, will be held on Sunday, August 12th, at 12:00 noon, following the fellowship time. We will gather to say our final goodbyes to a great friend of First Congregational Church. | |
Summer Movies
Mark your calendars for the environmental film, Before the Flood, which will be shown in the church parlor after the
worship service on Sunday, August 19. This movie features academy award winners, Leonardo DiCaprio and Fisher Stevens, as they show us that the science Is clear, and there is a need to make changes to protect our future. |
Can We Borrow Your House?
In September, we will be inviting everyone in our congregation to house meetings, gatherings of 8 - 10 people for a conversation about what wakes them up at night and the injustices they see in our community. While we have people who will lead
these conversations, we are in need of 2 - 3 homes to host these conversations. If you would be willing to host one of these sessions in your home, please let Pastor Jason know. |
Need a Walker or Wheelchair? Our church currently has a small number of walkers and wheelchairs, along with a shower chair. If you or a loved one could use this equipment or if you have gently used equipment to donate, please contact Harvey Littlefield or Vickie Grimes.

the people who like our page. To make sure you see everything, after you like us, go to the pull-down menu on the "Like" button and click "Get Notifications." This way everything that we post will show up on your own Facebook wall. If you are on Facebook, you can keep up with what is happening "between Sundays" on our Facebook
page. | Facebook Live
As much as we love gathering together on Sunday mornings, there are times when we are out of town or otherwise unable to be there in person.
You can now watch our worship service live on Facebook right on your computer, tablet, or smart phone. At 10:30 on Sunday just head over to our Facebook page and join us!

You can choose to have a set amount taken from your bank account on a regular basis or you can make a one (or more) time gift by checking account or credit card on our website. Your regular electronic giving means that your gift is available for ministry even when you are away (or forgot your checkbook!). Thank you for your continued support of the ministry of
