The stories of our people tell us that, in a burst of energy, the Creator formed humans from the elements of the earth, placed them in a place of abundance and beauty, and commissioned them to care for creation.

Sunday, July 13 - Pride in Bellingham: As an Open and Affirming Congregation we celebrate our diverse community and support our LGBTQ+ folks. We will be walking in the Pride Parade.

We are having First Congregational Church Pride T shirts printed locally at Iron Street Printing.

We are registered to walk in the parade and represent First Congregational Church as a place of love and affirmation. We’re in this together!

Our country and communities are more divided and polarized than ever.  Conflict is a part of life; how do we approach differences in a way that leads to mutual respect and understanding? First Congregational Church of Bellingham recently sponsored a presentation by Reverend Adam Taylor, President of Sojourners, where he encouraged us to find ways to bridge and build in our communities.
