Welcome
Friday 31st of March 2023
Welcome to the Stephentown Federated Church. You’ll find us on the outskirts of corn fields and horse pastures, on the border of NY and MA, on the edge of the Capital District and the Berkshires, split between two school districts, a federation of two spiritual traditions—but one community where people from different backgrounds can find their place. Everyone is welcome—regardless of who you are, from where you’ve come, or what you may or may not believe.
Our mission involves us as an accepting, caring Christian Fellowship, dedicated to serving the spiritual, emotional and physical needs of our local and extended community. Our worship and congregation is a place where all people can experience God’s love. Our responsibility is to share our gifts, open our arms and care for all God’s creations.
When asked what people love about their Stephentown Federated Church community, here’s some of the response:
“Our church has always been known for hospitality and welcome; it is easy to join—once or regularly—and know that you have a place here. No matter where we are in life’s journey, we can share it and the support of a spiritual community around us.” --BW
“Stephentown Federated Church is a friendly, warm and welcoming “
