First Church of Christ in Longmeadow, UCC

First Church of Christ in Longmeadow, UCC 763 Longmeadow St. Longmeadow, MA The people of First Church are diverse. We are married and single, young and old, longtime members and occasional visitors.

While some of us were baptized, confirmed, and married at First Church, many others were raised in other faith traditions; still others are participating in a faith community for the first time in our lives. Many of us live in Longmeadow; others come from the surrounding communities of Enfield, Springfield, Wilbraham, and beyond. We invite you learn about the history, beliefs, and mission that uni

te us all. Regular worship services are held Sundays at 10:00 a.m. in the sanctuary. Worship practices are outlined in the bulletins distributed at each service, and ushers are happy to guide newcomers. Childcare, church school, large-print texts, and audio assistance are available during Sunday services, and the church building is accessible to the handicapped. Street parking is available, as well as off-street parking in the nearby lots behind Longmeadow's Community House and Center School.

We also had fun saying Thank You to Crystal for her service as our Youth Leader!
