Empowering Community
The Stewardship Board has been thoughtful in seeing the needs of the community, the greater community, and the world, and are now calling on the community of First Congregational UCC members and friends to help support the Church in Empowering Community.
Empowering Community involves giving as we share our faith in the ultimate goodness and dignity of all.
