Voices from the Pews Podcast

Who We Are

Voices from the Pews is a podcast by First Congregational Church in Winchester, MA UCC. Previously called Wisdom Well, our podcast shares the honest, inspiring, and faith-filled stories of our church community. In each episode, you will hear about faith journeys, life stories, and what matters most. 

What We Believe

Voices from the Pews Podcast believes that everyone has a story to share–even you! While the previous iteration of our project, Wisdom Well, focused on the stories of elders in our church community, Voices from the Pews hopes to expand our focus to include the perspectives of all ages in the church. Indeed, we are seeking to hear and be in conversation with all of the voices from our Sanctuary pews! If you have a story to tell (or would like to nominate a friend!), please reach out to Rev. Maeve Kieran Hammond (maeve@fcc-winchester.org).

Can I Share These Stories?

Absolutely! All of our interviewed church members have agreed to share their story with the public.
