Welcome

We are delighted that you found your way to the website of First Congregational Church and Society of Rindge,
New Hampshire.  As you click through our virtual life and ministry, you’ll “see” a warm, friendly and welcoming Christian community.  We are grateful for our heritage and excited about our future.  The real thing, however, is
much better.  We hope this site encourages you to step into the church for worship any Sunday morning at 10:00am.  You will be greeted with enthusiasm and appreciated for the contribution your presence makes to our life and
worship together.  Call or email the church office and make an arrangement to meet with a member of the staff. 
We’ll welcome you.  In the meantime, we pray you happy and well.
Bridge Interim Pastor Rev. Betty French will be joining us for the next 2 months acting as our Bridge Interim Pastor.  Rev. 
French received her Master of Divinity degree from Andover Newton Theological School in 1998.  She
retired in May of 2011 after  serving at The First Congregational Church of Webster UCC for more than
10 years.  She lives in Contoocook, New Hampshire,
with her husband, Joe.

Betty has agreed to keep our Bible Study Group during
the time she is with us.

They have 4 children and 8 grandchildren ranging from ages 3-18 years old.

Betty enjoys reading, knitting, line dancing, having lunch with friends, and spending quality time with
family members.
