About this church

Bristol United Church of Christ, known as "The Church on the Hill," worships at 15 Church Street in Bristol, New Hampshire. From September through June, Sunday worship begins at 10 a.m., with Sunday school offered at the same hour and coffee fellowship at 11. On the first Sunday of each month the service is intergenerational. In July and August, the congregation holds one intergenerational worship service at 9:30 a.m., followed by coffee fellowship, and Sunday school pauses for the summer. The church belongs to the United Church of Christ, and its history traces back to Methodist and Congregational congregations that joined together in the twentieth century. The sanctuary building dates to 1827.

During the week, the church offers a Monday evening Bible study, choir rehearsals, the Joyful Noise Ukulele Band on Monday mornings, Morning Reflections on Wednesdays, and a Women's Fellowship that meets monthly. Public fellowship and mission suppers are held on a seasonal schedule. The building also hosts community programs including senior luncheons, Bone Builders exercise classes, WIC clinics, a commodity food program, and two Alcoholics Anonymous groups. The church supports local organizations such as the Tapply-Thompson Community Center and Bristol Community Services. For visitors, the facilities are accessible by lift, services are hearing assisted, large print bulletins are available, and nursery care for preschoolers can be arranged by request.
