PUT CHRIST BACK IN CHRISTMAS - An Advent Journey for Adults

Join in a four-session Advent series with Pastor Adam Hamilton that will take you on a video Journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem, following in the footsteps of Joseph and Mary, looking at archaeologically and biblically important sites along the way.  To help us reflect on the meaning of their Journey, you will receive a small book of devotions -- one for each day of Advent.

The series will be led by Dr. Diana Mrotek and the Rev. John Twiname, from 9-9:50 a.m. in the Parlor each Sunday during Advent, beginning on Sunday, November 27.  Tuition is $10.  Sign up at a table in the Social Hour where you can pick up your personal book of daily Reflections.  Child care available upon request.

300TH ANNIVERSARY EVENT - Celebrating the History of Congregationalism

Two Sunday mornings in April we hosted the Rev. Dr. Jonathan Lee from Hartford Seminary for his power-point presentation of our denomination's history from England (via The Netherlands) to the Massachusetts Bay Colony and down the coast of Connecticut, establishing new towns like West Parish (that became Westport).  Dr. Lee also outlines the leading role played by our denomination (now the United Church of Christ) in expanding our country's development of its promise of freedom and equal rights for all.
