Christ Church United, Dracut

WHAT WE BELIEVE
Christ Church United is an expression of the Body of Christ in the world today. We are an affirming Church, saying “yes” to God who is revealed in Creation, manifest in Jesus Christ, present through the Holy Spirit and is known in the Bible, understood in the historic creeds of the Church, and experienced through one another in the community of faith.

ABOUT OUR PASTOR
We welcomed our new settled pastor, Rev. Vanessa L. Bostick, to the church February 6, 2011. Rev. Vanessa comes to us with new ideas and enthusiam.

OUR HISTORY
Christ Church United of Dracut was established in June of 1969 out of a merger between the First Parish Congregational Church (Yellow Meeting House) and the First Evangelical Congregational Church (Hillside). Both churches have their roots in the first congregational society founded in Dracut in 1711.

We are part of the United Church of Christ, a denomination born out of a merger between the Congregational Christian Churches and the Evangelical and reformed Church in 1957. Our denominational roots reach back too the arrival of the pilgrims on the Mayflower and the arrival of the first German immigrants in the 1840’s. As part of the United Church of Christ, this church is a member of the Andover Association and the Massachusetts Conference.

OUR CHURCH AT WORSHIP
Our worship is the most important event in the life of our church and is held at 10:00 am on Sunday Morning, 9:00 am during the summer months. In addition, special services are offered on Christmas and during Lent and Holy Week.

The Sacrament of Holy Communion is celebrated the first Sunday of each month, which is open to all believers regardless of church affiliation. Baptisms are scheduled in consultation with the Pastor and are held during one of the worship services.
