WHO IS SECOND CHURCH?
Welcome!
We are a self-governing and Open & Affirming church affiliated with the United Church of Christ. With roots in the past, we are very much a 21st century church in our theology and social attitudes.
Second Congregational Church has been located at the heart of Attleboro for over 275 years. We are committed to being a downtown church, opening our Sunday Worship to the community and reaching out all week long to make the Attleboro area and the wider world a better place.
Are YOU welcome at Second Congregational Church? The answer is: YES! There’s a place for you here, and we look forward to seeing you soon.
Our official UCC Open & Affirming statement spells out exactly what we mean when we say that “All Are Welcome”:
As a covenant community, we are committed to the belief that all people are created equal before God, and that the love of Jesus Christ is inclusive.
We celebrate our diverse congregation, and we welcome persons of any race, gender, age, marital status, family structure, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, ability, and economic circumstance to full participation in our community life and ministry. We strive to reflect these beliefs in the language and content of our worship and in our lives together.
