WELCOME TO THE FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH IN HANSON !

Are you looking...
...for a place to belong?
...for a place to be loved?
...for God?

Our church has a welcoming atmosphere where you can feel at home for the first time or for a lifetime.

On Sunday mornings we offer two worship experiences:

  • A Traditional Service at 9:00 a.m. which features hymns, a Biblically based message and special music from our wonderful organist and Senior choir. This service celebrates the traditional pilgrim worship that brought us here. Nursery is available.
  • Our 11:00 a.m. Worship Service is for individuals and young families who desire a less formal atmosphere - It features a full band, lively worship, dramas and a Biblically based message which connects with our daily lives. During the school year, all Sunday School classes attend the first 15-20 minutes of this service for cool praise and worship songs and a brief message before heading off to class. Nursery is also available.
  • Following the 9:00 a.m. service, there will be a full hour of coffee and fellowship. All are encouraged to come early or stay later to cross paths with brothers and sisters in the church family. Coffee and fellowship will also follow the 11:00 a.m. service.

This Sunday, May 26, 2013, the scripture lesson is taken from Joshua 4:1-7. The message to be shared is entitled, "Memorial Day - Why Remember?". Please join us at one of these wonderful worship services.

Following each worship service we offer a great time for making new friends in our Fellowship Hall.

Our children also have a chance to worship, make friends and learn about God: During the school year, we offer a comprehensive, developmental, Bible-based Sunday School program for children aged three through Grade 12. All classes meet at 11:00 AM. Nursery is available all morning.

What you experience on Sunday morning is only a small picture of what our church has to offer. We have activities Prayer Groups, mid-week Bible Studies, and Family nights. We encourage you to touch on some of the ministry links on this website to learn more about us.

 

  church life: IT'S NOT TOO LATE TO JOIN US FOR ALPHA ! Wednesdays 7-9 p.m.
Posted by: cshepherd on Mar 31, 2013 - 04:27 PM
Christian Life
“What is the meaning of life?” If you are one of the many people who are asking this same question, First Congregational Church in Hanson invites you to attend the Alpha Course on Wednesday nights, at 7pm. Alpha is an opportunity to explore the meaning of life in a relaxed, friendly setting. People of different backgrounds, religions, and viewpoints come together to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed setting over ten thought-provoking weekly sessions. Some people want to investigate if God exists or if there is any point to life, others may have attended church on and off their whole life but never understood the basics of the Christian faith. The objective is the same: Is Jesus Christ relevant for my life? Come explore. Everyone is welcome.
