First Congregational Church of Woodstock, CT

First Congregational Church of Woodstock, CT We believe that God’s love is for everyone—no matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey.

An Open and Affirming Congregation of the United Church of Christ "No matter who you are, or where you are on life's journey, you are welcome here!"
www.firstchurchwoodstock.org First Congregational Church of Woodstock is a vibrant Christian community where we gather to worship God, to serve our neighbors, and to grow in our faith through our relationships with one another. As followers of Jesus, we seek to reach out to neighbors, friends, and strangers, and to share a spirit of welcome with all who cross our threshold. Led by Christ’s Spirit, we commit ourselves to caring for one another and for all creation, bringing our curiosity, our spiritual hunger, our sorrows, and our joys, and finding sustenance for the journey together. In all things, we seek to embody God’s grace, mercy, forgiveness, compassion, hope, and joy.

At the very heart of our shared humanity is a longing for a place and space to breathe, rest our weary spirits, and reconnect to what matters most. And, as an inclusive community where “all are Welcome, it lies at the heart of why we gather week after week seeking to reflect God’s love, Christ’s peace, and the Spirit of healing and hope.

This Sunday at 10:00 AM, we return to worship in our sanctuary to celebrate Homecoming Sunday and launch our new 5-week worship series, "There Our Hearts Will Be." The moment feels all the more poignant as we gather to celebrate the God who is love.

Drawn from the ancient wisdom of Deuteronomy 6 and the radical, wall-breaking hospitality of Ephesians 2, we’ll explore how true homecoming is found as we dwell in God’s unconditional love—a grace that tears down the fearful walls that divide us and welcomes us all home.

I look forward to gathering with you, sharing in the warmth of this community, and re-anchoring our hearts in God's peace.

In Christ,
Rev Kev

It’s time for FCCW’s annual Chicken BBQ at The Woodstock Fair!

A Woodstock Fair tradition — and one of our biggest fundraisers of the year.

When you choose dinner from the FCCW booth, you’re doing more than getting a great meal. You’re supporting a local nonprofit, helping us continue our work in the community, and keeping a longtime Fair tradition going strong.

Eat local. Support local. Keep the tradition going.

Stop by, say hello, and come hungry --- Look for the GIANT CHICKEN on our roof!

Feeling weary? You're in good company. Even Jesus rested. He sat, waited, and truly saw the Samaritan woman, asking her gently for a drink.
