The First Congregational Church of Pembroke, NH
The First Congregational Church of Pembroke, NH was founded in 1733 as the first and only church in Pembroke. As such its beginnings were a mixture of denominational backgrounds. This continues today, we are biblically based and spiritually led by the Word and the Holy Spirit in our midst. We follow Jesus' teachings and our services are based in delving into the scriptures and applying them to current life. We are a growing congregation following the set back of covid, though we kept our doors open for worship our numbers dropped. Today we are welcoming many new young families looking for a mix of traditional and contemporary worship styles. Our church has a Leadership Team that consists of an admin group, Diaconate and Trustees that oversee with full collaboration of the Pastor, who is an active member of the Leadership Team, the shepherding and spiritual care, all worship services and Bible studies and general business of the church.
