HAPPY 300TH ANNIVERSARY
TO
THE CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH OF WESTBOROUGH!
During this anniversary year, we will explore the historic scope and strength of our spiritual growth and community presence. None of Reverend Ebenezer Parkman's twenty-seven successors has led the Church for a fifty-eight-year term, but all have helped the church focus on new faith experiences and ways to serve the needs of our congregation.
We invite you to participate in the many special events planned in 2024 - a year to celebrate
The Congregational Church of Westborough
and its 300 years of Faith, Love and Service.
Please look below for our quarterly newsletters, as well as events scheduled in the coming months. Be sure to check back often for updates!
Many Thanks to Westborough TV for filming a presentation on our history! Scroll down to view "300 Years and Counting" by our own Tom Morgan.
something fun is happening every month!
