Our governance is "congregational," which means that the members own the church and make all major decisions about money, mission, and staffing.

In congregational meetings budgets are determined, priorities are discussed, and leadership is elected. The congregation of members elects a nine-person Church Board to provide ongoing leadership, planning, program evaluation, and fiscal oversight.

Board members serve three-year terms and can be nominated by any member.  There is no "nominating committee."  Instead, the church relies on the prayerful discernment of the congregation to call forth Board Members.  The Board meets on the 2nd Tuesday of the month from 5-7 p.m. and provides spiritual and missional leadership on behalf of the congregation.  Potential board members must have had previous church committee, task force, or other leadership experience, and have the endorsement of three other First Congregational Church members.  If you are interested, please contact Pastor Greg for a nomination form.
