Congregational Church Stays Connected
During the suspension of in-person activities in light of the Covid-19 situation, the Congregational Church of Amherst, UCC has a variety of ways for members and others to connect with church programs. This is especially important during April as Holy Week and Easter are on the horizon.
The most up-to-date information about church activities can be found on the church’s website (ccamherst.org) or by calling the church office at 673-3231. Sunday services are broadcast on FacebookLive and recorded for later on-line viewing. Services are followed by a Virtual Fellowship Hour. Links for these and other events can be found on the website.
The church’s Facebook page is another source of information, including updates and video messages from the pastors. Pastors Maureen Frescott and Kate Kennedy are available to provide pastoral care during this time, and the church welcomes community members to connect with this loving, serving, open and affirming community of faith.

2020 Memory Tree
Remembering Loved Ones
AMHERST – The “Baby Blue Eyes “ Spruce with vivid blue foliage was illuminated this year on the Amherst Town Common. Although the spruce tree is in its infancy and still quite small, the message is significant. The blue spruce, layered in eight hundred white lights, shone brightly on the Amherst Town Common over the Holiday season. For a small donation to the Amherst Garden Club’s Charitable Fund, loved ones who have passed, were memorialized.
Thanks to the generosity and caring of so many members of the community, the money will be carefully spent on a cause that is aligned to the Amherst Garden Club Mission. Past proceeds went directly to the Amherst Garden Club Scholarship Fund for those individual students attending an institution of higher learning to study horticulture, botany, plant science, landscaping design, or environmental science as it relates to horticulture.
