Our Mission

Congregational Church of New Fairfield (Picture Taken:  May 30, 2004)Welcome to the online home of The Congregational Church of New Fairfield, Connecticut. We have been an active congregation since our church's founding in 1742. Since that time, we have sought to care for each other spiritually and commit ourselves to regular worship and prayer. We seek to grow in the knowledge and love of God by carefully attending to the scripture and by striving to hear and fulfill our mission to love and serve others.

You can receive an electronic-only subscription to help save the cost of postage. Sign up by sending an email to the Church Office.

Inclement weather policy

Though we rarely cancel worship services on Sunday, there are a few occasions when storms come on Saturday evening or Sunday morning that make driving treacherous making it prudent to cancel. Winter weather proceduresOur Inclement Weather Policy calls for the Chairperson of Worship and Ministry along with the Pastor to make a decision by 7:30 AM in order to allow time for choir members, church school teachers, and others to be notified. If there is a question about a cancellation, listen to WLAD or tune into WTNH 8 or WFSB 3.

Welcome! Please join Worship Scheduleus for worship every Sunday at 10:00 AM. Communion is held on the first Sunday of each month. Come and begin your week in worship!
