Weddings
Beauty. History. Sacredness. Our iconic New England church and the grandly adorned Sanctuary and center aisle, makes First Congregational Church a favored location for weddings. Please contact the Office Administer at 508-432-1053 or email us to discuss your wedding plans, fees, reserve a date and even take a tour of our church. We welcome this opportunity to meet with and get to know you. Together we can plan and shape your wedding service.
Funerals and Memorial Services
When someone you love passes away, you are not alone. We are available to meet with you and/or officiate at funeral and memorial services. Please contact us at 508-432-1053 or email.
Deacons
The Deacons are responsible for the spiritual health of First Church. In fact, as we like to say “Your Deacons are here for you – our door never closes.”
They serve our congregation by assisting the Pastor and the Director of Music with worship and special services, preparing and serving Holy Communion, supporting Christian education and faith formation, and assist with new members and their integration into the life of the church.
Most especially, First Church Deacons care for those who are in special need, ill in hospitals and rehabilitation centers, or shut in at homes or in residences.
