First Congregational Church

About this church

First Congregational Church, UCC, in Columbus, Ohio, worships on Sundays at 9 and 11 a.m. at 444 East Broad Street, in a Gothic-style sanctuary where two pipe organs lead the singing. The 9 a.m. service is a casual Morning Prayer and Holy Communion held in the Parish Hall with lay participation, and it ends at 9:45 so people can attend Faith Formation. The 11 a.m. service takes place in the sanctuary, with communion on the first Sunday of each month. Both services stream on YouTube and Facebook Live. On the third Sunday of each month, the choir leads Choral Evensong, a quiet service of light, music, and prayer. The congregation belongs to the United Church of Christ and dates to 1852.

Families will find a staffed nursery for infants through age four during both services and Faith Formation. Children from age four through second grade can join Worship Connections in the children's library during the sermon, and Sunday classes run for preschool through fifth grade from the fall through mid-May. Middle and high school students have Sunday morning classes, a Sunday evening youth group, confirmation, and mission trips. Visitors can park free in the North or West lot and enter through the Broad Street or Education Wing doors, and the building has an elevator and accessible spaces. The church office is open weekdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Confirm times on the website.
