Christmas Day

Quiet Christmas with Communion
Held at the same our as our Sunday worship, this reverent service enables us to greet the new morn and reflect on the incarnation of God.

We hope to see you at Worship!

Join us for an interfaith worship experience celebrating Thanksgiving sponsored by the Montclair and Bloomfield Clergy Associations. First is located at 153 Park Street, near Montclair High School. A parking lot and on-street parking is available. Our building is fully handicap accessible.

Please join us as we mark the 120th year of grace at First Montclair. Begun as a Swedish Augustana Synod congregation, First is now proud of its diversity, reflecting both the community, and God’s vision for the Church. Photos and other memorabilia will be displayed. The meal will be catered by The Fruited Plain, an outfit out of Parsippany owned by the daughter of one of our members. A free-will donation basket will be available for those who wish to donate to defray the cost of the luncheon.
