“We, the members of First Congregational Church of Stockton, are committed to following the footsteps of Jesus; welcoming, accepting and loving others along the way. We seek to proclaim Christ’s unconditional love in what we teach and in how we serve together within our congregation and our community, working together to seek justice and equality for all. We seek to live out God’s word found in scripture, looking to be an expression of God’s love in this world. We are an inclusive and diverse church; a place of unconditional love that inspires all individuals in our community, regardless of race, culture, age, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, abilities and socio-economic status. No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome at First Congregational Church of Stockton.” – Pastor William Pifer-Foote

This is an exciting period of growth and change that you can be part of.

We are a caring congregation, committed to Jesus Christ, with a welcoming spirit for all. We believe that each individual is important and that all come to faith through their unique experiences. We seek to live out God’s word found in scripture, looking to be an expression of God’s love in this world. Our doors are open to people of every race, age, ability and orientation. We do not have any test of one’s faithfulness, knowing that everyone is on a personal pilgrimage of faith and questioning. You do not need to be a member of First Congregational to participate in any of its services or programs.

Worship is the lifeblood of our congregation. Our services feature music, both traditional and contemporary. Our church choir and music director bring a spirit of joy to Sunday morning. Our Sunday morning services are live-streamed and archived on Facebook.

Communion is celebrated the first Sunday of each month. The table is open to all, as we acknowledge that it is Christ’s table, not ours.
