We're glad you came!

Come and get involved!

There are no Strangers at the Phippsburg Congreational Church..everyone is welcomed as New Friends! This Fall (as we once again "come inside") is the ideal time to get  more involved in your Church family. Strike up a conversation with your pew mates or participate in one of the fun fall events planned like the Deacons Progressive Dinner ( Sept 22) or the Pastor's Fourth Annual Pasture Picnic (Sept. 29-Raindate Oct. 6). If you enjoy giggles and wiggles consider signing up to assist in the Sunday School program which kicks off its Fall season on September 22!

May our Fall Fellowship be as bright and dazzling as the turning leaves will be in the coming weeks!

   Two United Church of Christ national officers were elected on Monday June 24 in Milwaukee. The nomination of the Rev. Georgia Thompson received overwhelming support and she will be Associate General Minister of Global Engagement for four years starting August 1.

   The Rev. John C. Dorhauer, General Minister and President, received support and opposition from the floor to his election. The lengthy debate centered on the issue of returning a white cisgender male to leadership of the denomination. Rev. Dorhauer stated “I deeply appreciate the voices that shared their concerns about my leadership and the extension of the term to another white cisgender male.” He pledged not to seek a third term.
