“Grace to you,
and peace from God!”
These are
the words that the Apostle Paul used to address the
Christian church in Corinth, words that spoke of his
affection for that community and a confession of where
their true strength might be found: the God we know in
Jesus Christ. We invite everyone to join in our community
of faith: to gather to worship God, engage in fellowship,
and serve his people. Whether on Sunday mornings or beyond,
we encourage you to reach out to us and to one another, in
person or by phone or email.
We offer worship
services every Sunday morning at 10:00, with a live stream
available on Zoom. Please click on the corresponding links
below for worship resources; to receive the Zoom link,
contact the church office by email or phone (603-448-4281). Visitors to
FCC are welcome to wear masks if they wish. Please
contact the church office if you have questions about a
service or any other event here.
