What We Are About The purpose of our Church is to bind together followers of Jesus Christ to share in the worship of God and in making his will dominant in the lives of persons individually and collectively, especially as that direction is set forth in the life and teaching of Jesus Christ. The Church continues in a long line of witnesses to the Congregational Way, and welcomes all persons to its Fellowship of Faith and Freedom.
