First Congregational Church of Woodstock, United Church of Christ

About this church

First Congregational Church of Woodstock, a United Church of Christ congregation on Woodstock Hill, gathers for Sunday worship at 10 a.m. from September through June. In July the service moves to 9 a.m. and is shared with East Woodstock Congregational Church in the First Church sanctuary. In August the joint 9 a.m. worship meets at East Woodstock Congregational Church on Woodstock Road. Services include reading, preaching, prayer, and music in a variety of styles, and they last about an hour. Communion is offered on the first Sunday of each month. The congregation has worshiped in its New England meetinghouse since 1820.

Children are welcome in worship, and the sanctuary has a "prayground" with toys and activities. After the service, coffee and refreshments are served in Harrison Hall, behind the sanctuary. Dress ranges from casual to Sunday best. Parking is next to the church and along the green, and a side ramp and an elevator provide access to the main and lower levels. Recorded online worship messages are posted on the website. Outreach and community activities include Faith in Action volunteering, community kitchens, a monthly senior social, an Arts + Crafts Fair, Christmas on the Hill, and a barbecue at the Woodstock Fair. Confirm seasonal times on the website before visiting.
