​As we often say, no matter who you are or where you are on life's journey, you are welcome here.

Since its founding in 1776, our Winthrop Church has borne witness to the belief that God's love is a gift for all people and for all  times. In January of 2017, the church took a step of faith and committed to raise the funds to help us live into our next steps as a place of welcome for all people. We need to raise $45,000 to update and repair parts of our building in order to better reflect our commitment to hospitality and service.

​We are so close to having the funds we need.
​
You can help put us over the top. 
Here is what we need to do to make sure our building is both safe and welcoming: 
  • Fix the iconic bell tower: This is the first part of the building people usually see. The bell tower has been leaking during heavy wind-driven rains resulting in some water damage in the sanctuary.  We plan to install new windows and weather proofing to the bell tower to eliminate water intrusion.
  • Fix our roof: The church roof shingles on the Main Street side have been loosening and blowing off.  This has resulted in roof leaks and some damage to the sanctuary ceiling.  We have replaced sections of shingles as they blow off.  For a more permanent repair, we plan to remove the shingles, install plywood and install new shingles.  
  • Repair the sanctuary ceiling: Once we have eliminated sources of rain water intrusion through the roof and bell tower, we plan to repair the water damage to the sanctuary ceiling.  
  • Update our entryway: The wall paper, paint and carpet in the main entry way of the church are worn and need replacing.  We plan to paint the walls and ceiling and replace the carpet.  
​Our church community endeavors to accept and embrace all who enter here. We welcome individuals of every race, ethnicity, nationality,  gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, family structure, marital standing, socio-economic status, age, physical and mental ability to join us in the ministry of our church. All are invited to participate in worship, fellowship, and leadership.
