AND
Centre Street Congregational Church
Founded in 1782, our current church was built in 1836. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Centre Street features a Paul Revere bell, mechanical town clock, George Stevens tracker organ, and large Tiffany-style stained glass windows. We are an
historic congregation with open doors and progressive thinking.
We believe in a loving, all-welcoming God. All are children of God. We believe in the Bible and Jesus as the head of the church and we listen for the still small voice of God in today's society: "God is Still Speaking!"
Centre Street Church is an Open and Affirming Church We, the Congregation of Centre Street Congregational Church, United Church of Christ, declare ourselves to be open and affirming of all people. With God's grace, we seek to be a congregation that embraces differences of sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, age, mental and physical abilities as well as racial, ethnic, or socio-economic status.
We welcome all to share in the life and leadership, ministry, fellowship, sacraments, responsibilities, and blessings of participation in our faith community.
