About South Congregational Church
South
Congregational Church is a small but spirited place of worship, and our members
want to help make you feel welcomed. We are a diverse group and welcome all who
want to come together to worship God ad bear witness to Jesus' message of
peace, justice, love, and healing.
On October 4,
1972, the original Church building on this site was destroyed by a fire of
unknown origin. Everything was destroyed, save for the charred communion table,
cross, candlesticks, and our Bible. The miracle is that these items were only 7
steps away from the organ that was totally destroyed! The current Church
building was dedicated on October 27, 1974. The surviving Bible, table, cross, and
candlesticks have a place of honor in our Church. The three hanging plants
above the choir area are a symbol of the living trinity, and the hanging light
fixtures at the front of the sanctuary have 12 lights
each as symbols of the 12 disciples. The brass hanging cross was a gift to our
Church from Third Congregational Church.
