These inscribed words on the facade above the front doors have welcomed members and visitors into our Church at 444 East Broad Street since 1931. Beginning as an abolitionist church in 1852, First Congregational Church, UCC, Columbus has always focused on two things; worship and social justice. This focus remains the same today.
