What is the "Congregational Way"?

(the short version) The Congregational Way is a way of following Christ. People of a Congregational Church do not seek to be led by a creed or strictly defined belief systems, rather by the Spirit of God. Ours is the tradition of a free church, gathered under the headship of Christ and bound to others by love and faith, not law or required belief statements.  The elements of faith that bind a Congregational Church together are expressed in the church covenant.

 

​What is the service like?

Each service is approximately one hour long, beginning at 10:00 am.

​

What type of music during service?

FCCL combines a mix of traditional and contemporary worship songs.  In September of 2018 FCCL added a state of the art audio / visual booth to help enhance worship.  We are currently looking for musicians to support the music department.

 

The Chancel Choir and Covenant Ringers provide special music as available.

​What should I wear?

Dress comfortable.  On any given Sunday you will find people in jeans, shorts, slacks and dresses.  Wear what you "normally" wear.
