Welcome


 

Whether you are exploring the Christian faith, looking for a place to serve, or seeking encouragement for spiritual growth, we welcome you at the First Congregational Church of Essex.

We believe that Christianity is not about religion, but about a relationship with the Lord of the universe that we can enter into through the work of Jesus, His Son, and experience through the ministry and power of His Spirit.

We invite you to come and enjoy being in community with God's people as we seek to live, grow, and serve together.   

We are located at 39 Main Street (across from The White Elephant), and can be reached at 978-768-7855.

Sunday morning worship and Sunday school for children begins at 10:30 a.m. Infant and toddler care is available in our nursery. Sunday school for adults is held, on most Sundays, at 9:15 a.m.

youth group for 7th thru 12th grade is offered on Sunday evenings from 6:00 - 8:00 p.m.

Throughout the week, a wide range of ministries and opportunities for Christian growth and service are also available.

We hope that you will come and experience life in the Kingdom of God with us!
