October 5 is World Communion Sunday, wherein we celebrate the gift of the vast and diverse Body of Christ around the globe. Though we are many people, we are one in Christ: strengthened and connected by the love of Jesus’s ministry and enduring legacy of peace, fellowship, and justice. Our Scripture readings this Sunday come from the lectionary: Psalm 137:1-6 (the cry of the people of God under the oppression of Babylon) and Luke 17:5-10 (faith the size of a mustard seed). Grounded in our sacred texts, we will ask this question: “how can we sing of God in a foreign land?” Music, prayers, contemplation–we hope you can join us this Sunday in person or online.

We are the First Congregational Church in Winchester - A Christ-centered nurturing community, growing in faith, serving in love, welcoming all with joy.

For decades, we have celebrated our LGBTQIA+ siblings and their inclusion in all parts of our worship and congregational life. In 2001, we became Open & Affirming through the UCC, meaning we are liturgically and theologically committed to a public covenant of welcome.
