Our History

Our congregation was founded as the Peoples Congregational Church on October 21, 1921 by Dr. Samuel Wentz, its founder and first pastor. As a Congregational church, the name was changed to our current name in 1957 after the formation of the United Church of Christ (UCC). As a part of the roughly 5,000 member UCC fellowship of churches, we believe in God's continuing testament, His desire for us to be a church of extravagant welcoming and His command of us to bring about justice and peace in this world.
