Child care: Child care is provided for infants and young children
to age three during worship.
A professional attendant is on duty 9:50 a.m. to 11:45 a.m.
Church School:
Children attend the first part of the worship service.
They hear the scripture read and are present for at least one
hymn and other music of the service. The pastor shares a message
appropriate for children, usually based on the scriptural theme
for the service. At a designated point in the worship service
they leave for Church School which runs until 11:15 a.m.
Healing Service: Included as part of our Sunday
Worship the fifth Sunday of a month as well as during Lent.
This is a service which fosters healing of self, of others or of
the world. It is a time of prayer, scripture readings, anointing
and laying on of hands.

than exclusive, First Congregational Church strives to provide a
barrier free environment within our building in order to make
worship and participation in other church programs readily
accessible to all.
