UCC First Congregational Church Fort Atkinson WI

On Saturday, June 6, about 40 members and friends of First Congregational United Church of Christ in Fort Atkinson gathered for a "prairie church" service.
Hosting the event at their rural Jefferson home were the congregation's moderator, Linda Glendon, and her husband, Jeff.
The Rev. Dr. Sara Rabe led the service, which focused on enjoying and appreciating nature and letting go of (and burning) burdens as a profound act of spiritual release and healing amidst creation.
This marked the congregation's second service in the form of "wild church," an ecospiritual movement that emphasizes experiencing the divine directly through creation. Last fall, church members gathered beneath the church's landmark bur oak tree for worship.
Of course, First Congregational UCC also worships indoors! Summer services are held at 9 a.m. Sundays through Labor Day. The church is located at 33 West Milwaukee Avenue.

Believe it or not, summer is only six weeks away!
Looking ahead to a season when many people go out and about on Sundays, First Congregational United Church of Christ in Fort Atkinson has moved its summer worship time up an hour from the usual 10 a.m.
Starting on June 7, the service will begin at 9 a.m. This will continue through around Labor Day.
We hope that you can join us!
