We welcome all to
worship with us. After service a social time for fellowship and refreshments
is held in Ober Hall. First Church is located in the beautiful seacoast town
of Kennebunkport in Southern Maine. Enjoy God’s love in action by visiting
our worship service and getting to know us.
Our church history started in 1730
when Kennebunkport was known as Arundel and part of the Massachusetts Bay
Colony. Since then, the church was burned, rebuilt near its present location,
and later moved to where it now stands. A group branched off and established a
new church in the present center of Town. The oversized church was torn down and
rebuilt smaller, and has since been enlarged. After 75 years with part time
pastors we now have a outstanding full time pastor and we are experiencing
growth. We hope that you will consider growing with us in fellowship, worship
and faith.
EXTRA TIME SLOT FOR FIRST CHURCH’S
LADIES’ SOCIETY’S “LIVE, LAUGH, LOVE TOGETHER” PROGRAM!
Due to the popularity of the first of three
segments of the following event an extra time slot for the program has been
added! The First Congregational Church of Kennebunkport’s Ladies’ Society,
(a social, supportive, service oriented women’s group of the church), is
inviting all women of all ages and affiliations to attend “Live, Laugh, Love
Together” on Tuesdays, April 10th, and May 8th. The
Ladies’ will host this event at two time slots, 2:00pm & 6:30pm, so that
working women can attend the evening session. This informative and in-depth
video series is packed with real women sharing real stories of God’s grace
and encouragement. The series offers laughter, maybe some tears, but
definitely an amazing experience in every segment. Come feel renewed and
inspired as we share this time together. The program will be facilitated by
Cheryl Kane of First Church and He Cares Ministry. All women of the
Kennebunks and surrounding area communities are welcome and encouraged to
bring a friend. This Tuesday afternoon series will be held in First Church’s
Ober Hall, 141 North St., Kennebunkport, (near Wink’s Store and the
Kennebunkport Historical Society). Light refreshments, coffee or tea will
be available.

The
First Congregational Church of Kennebunkport’s active Outreach Committee is
