Welcome to First Parish Church
We Covenant with one another to seek and respond to the Word and will of God. We propose to walk together in the ways of the Lord, made known and to be made known to us. We hold it to be the mission of the Church to witness the gospel of Jesus Christ in all the world, while worshiping God and striving for truth, justice and peace. As did our forbearers, we depend on the Holy Spirit to lead and empower us. We pray for the coming of the Kingdom of God and we look with faith toward the triumph of righteousness and eternal life.
