Christian Education

The First Congregational Church is dedicated to providing a spiritual Christian Education program that is both meaningful and enjoyable for our entire congregation. This includes a Church School program for children ages newborn to 7th grade, youth ministry which includes both a youth group for grades 6-12 and confirmation for students typically in the 8th grade, adult education, Bible study and discussion groups, and fellowship opportunities that promote the educational activity of the Church.
