Welcome Home

The First Congregational Church has been a part of this community from the very beginning.

Established in 1848, we’ve been a steady presence in the same location, right off Michigan Avenue in the heart of the city center.

Our purpose and mission remain constant: to have Open Minds, Open Hearts, Open Arms, and Open Doors, sharing God’s love with each soul we encounter. We’re a safe place, where everyone is welcome and everyone has value. We believe that each individual is on a personal journey of faith discovery and that we all possess intellectual freedom as we develop a relationship with God.

We hope we can connect with you and walk this life journey together.

Welcome Home

We’re so glad you stopped by and hope you’ll visit us soon.

At First Congregational Church of Wayne, we believe that the sincerity of our convictions requires us to have intellectual freedom, which naturally attracts great thinkers like yourself. Simply put, we honor every sincere conviction that honors God. And we do so, together in fellowship, each Sunday.

We’d love to connect with you, as we open our minds, hearts, arms, and doors to the people of this community. Here, you’ll find a place where you are accepted and loved. Welcome home!
