Welcome!
No matter who you are, or where you are on your journey, you are fully welcome here.
For over 300 years First Parish Church has been a spirit-led and deeply faithful presence in the Town of Manchester. We trace our roots to the Mayflower, but also look with excitement and energy towards the future. We're proud to be an active, inter-generational congregation that celebrates families of all kinds.
