About this church
First Korean Church of Rhode Island, United Church of Christ in Cranston gathers for Sunday worship at 12 p.m. at 546 Budlong Road. The congregation describes itself as the first Korean Christian community formed in Rhode Island, founded in 1979. It belongs to the United Church of Christ and its Southern New England Conference, and it traces its faith tradition to the Congregational churches of the Pilgrims who sailed on the Mayflower. The website is written mostly in Korean, with a short English greeting that invites visitors to come as they are, wherever they are on life's journey.
The church lists a church school that meets at 12 p.m. and a morning prayer time at 9 a.m. Pastoral counseling is available during office hours, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., Tuesday through Friday. The website also has pages for sermon videos, weekly bulletins, pastoral columns, online giving, community groups, and Bible reading gatherings, which give newcomers a way to follow the church's teaching and activities before visiting. Visitors can call 401-339-4713 with questions. Because times can change, confirm the schedule with the church or on its website before attending.
