About Us Welcome to First Parish! We hope the beauty and tradition of our historic Meeting House will give meaning to your time here. No matter what your belief or circumstance, we invite you to explore what our congregation might offer you. Whatever your ethnic origin, sexual orientation, religious heritage, or physical abilities, you are welcome here. We gather for public worship every Sunday at 10 AM and throughout the week for a variety of meetings and programs. Our mission is to nurture the spirit, to grow in community and to help heal the world. First Parish stands at both the historical and the contemporary center of Portland. Our central location, which we embrace proudly, calls us to spiritual witness and public service. We believe there are four essential ingredients necessary for spiritual growth: a commitment to serve and advocate for others, a willingness to accept and give support to one another ; an openness to learning and to exploring life's mysteries and a disciplined spiritual practice of one's own choosing. We also believe that church and fun are not mutually exclusive. If you would like to explore further how you might become involved in our faith community, please feel free to call our church office during normal business hours, or simply drop by and join us for public worship Sunday Mornings at 10. We look forward to meeting you! 425 Congress Street, ME 04102 Portland 207-773-5747 office hours Tues.-Fri. 9: 30 to 1: 00
