Our History
Founded in 1875, FCCW is perhaps the oldest church in the village of Wilmette. We’re actually part of the United Church of Christ – which is a denomination that was formed in 1957 as a merger of historic Protestant denominations: the Congregational Christian churches and the Evangelical and Reformed churches. Like all congregational churches, we’re independently guided by our congregation.
It’s a church for all people, run by people. What’s not to like?
