First Congregational Church of Old Lyme

We’re more than a building; we’re a community. A community of people of faith who care about the world we live in, whether it’s right outside our door or half a world away. A community that is constantly striving to live up to Christ’s teaching, “Love thy neighbor as thyself.” We enter into a covenant with each other, using the centrality of scripture and the life and teachings of Jesus, to find a stronger Christian faith.

Following the life and teachings of Jesus, we are a church that strives to be a place of grace, welcoming all regardless of theological expression, age, race, gender, sexual identity, national origin or financial means. In our Church Constitution we recognize that “each member shall have the undisturbed right to follow the word of God according to the dictates of his or her own conscience, under the enlightenment of the Holy Spirit.” We would be honored by your presence among us, and we invite you to help us become what we endeavor to be.
