Heritage Bell Plaza

Honoring our heritage for future generations.

Seven years ago on November 12, 2006, a dedication service was held for our new church building that would house the people of two congregations: the First United Methodist Church and the First Congregational Church.  Since that time we have worshiped together, we have planned together and we have served together.  We praise God and thank Him for His love and guidance.

A bell plaza has been planned to further honor the heritage of both churches. The plaza will be located in front of the church between the drive and the east sidewalk.  The Heritage Bell Plaza will display both church bells and include a walkway of brick pavers and meditation bench. The bells have been restored and will be rung in harmony for special occasions.

We want to honor all who have served our churches by using personalized brick pavers on the walkway surrounding the bells.  Please consider purchasing a personalized brick  paver engraved with your name, the name of a loved one or your family name.
