About North Stamford Congregational Church

The North Stamford Congregational Church is a church family that not only invites, but welcomes all those who seek the fellowship of Christ, and would endeavor to be an integral part of the mission of the church. In 1961, by membership vote, the North Stamford Congregational Church became a participating church in the United Church of Christ. The church is a supporting member of the InterFaith Council of Southwestern Connecticut, state and county denominational bodies, and maintains relationships with community agencies and outreach projects.

The North Stamford Congregational Church dates back to pre-Revolutionary times, when families gathered in farmhouses for religious meetings as early as December 1742. Legally established through approval of the Connecticut State Legislature in 1781, the church gathered as an independent society on June 4, 1782. Twenty-two founding members, representing 10 families, signed a lengthy covenant, which created the church. Like other Colonial churches, the society exercised civil and religious authority for many years.

Its white-steepled Colonial church is a popular location for weddings and the Stone House can be rented for parties and events. The North Stamford Congregational Church and Stone House are located in North Stamford, Connecticut two miles north of the Merritt Parkway (Route 15).
