First Christian Church

About Us:

As early as 1792, there were loosely organized church groups meeting in Wolfeboro.  Around that time, the Rev. Allen was hired to establish a congregational church in town.  By 1834, the Pickering family had gathered twelve like-minded citizens in their home to formally begin what we now know as the First Congregational Church of Wolfeboro, United Church of Christ (UCC).  In 1847, a newly constructed church building was dedicated on the grounds of Brewster Academy, and finally, in 1912, the congregation broke ground for a new church building.  It served for just over a hundred years as a place for worship and ministry for us. 

In 1991, the congregation dedicated an education wing with classrooms, a library and chapel that we continue to enjoy today. Our current church was rebuilt and dedicated on September 28th, 2014.  From its inception, our church community has served as a beacon of warmth and welcome for residents and visitors alike.  We covenant together to worship and pray, learn and teach, serve and support in order to manifest God's love in the world, with Jesus Christ as our example, and the Holy Spirt as our guide.
