http://www.fact-index.com/c/co/congregationalist_church.html

Extractions: Main Page See live article Alphabetical index Congregationalist churches practice a congregationalist form of government, some of which trace their descent from the Congregational Church. The Congregational Church is a family of denominations of Christian Protestantism which arose from the Nonconformist religious movement in England, during the Puritan reformation. In Great Britain, the early congregationalists were called separatists or independents , and some congregationalists still call themselves "Independents" there. The Congregational Church was formed on a theory of union published by Robert Brown , in 1592. They are the Pilgrims of Plymouth Rock, and the Puritans of the Massachusetts Bay Colony , which were organized in union by the Cambridge Platform in There are difficulties identifying such a specific beginning, because given its distinguishing commitment to the complete autonomy of the local congregation, congregationalism is more easily identified as a movement rather than a single denomination. The idea that each distinct congregation fully constitutes the visible Church can be traced to John Wyclif and the Lollard movement which followed after Wyclif was removed from teaching authority in the Roman Catholic Church . The early Congregationalists shared with Anabaptist theology the ideal of a pure church, which made adult conversion experience important for full membership in the church, unlike other

The Anabaptist movement, Pentecostals Baptists , and the Congregationalist churches are organized according to it. In Christianity , it is distinguished from presbyterian church governance , which is governance by elders, and from episcopalian church governance , which is governance by a hierarchy of bishops Congregationalism is not limited only to organization of Christian congregations. Most of the principles of congregationalism have been inherited by the Unitarian Universalist Association , by direct historical descent from the Congregational Church. Neopagan Wiccans and numerous other religious groups which may dispense entirely with Biblical or Christian rationale have adopted part or all of the congregationalist plan of organization Congregationalism is the theory that every local church is a full realization in miniature of the entire Church of Jesus Christ; and the Church, while on earth, besides the local church, can

Extractions: Welsh Congregationalist News News (see below for future diary dates) During 2003, the Congregational Federation in Wales has been pleased to welcome two new member Churches, Mount Pleasant, Hirwaun and Penydre Mission, Neath. We offer a very warm welcome to any other unaffiliated congregation which feels that the time has come to join in fellowship with others of similar mind and style. Markham Congregational Church celebrated the Induction of its first pastors for many years on 8th March. Phil and Jane Harris look forward to an exciting and busy ministry in this centrally placed village Church. Soon after celebrating a particularly happy Anniversary Service, the members of Ritson Street Congregational Church, Briton Ferry discovered that their building was unsafe. They felt that it was not a good use of scarce resources to seek to spend the considerable sum that was needed to put the building back in order and, therefore, agreed to meet with their friends at Bethesda Welsh Independent Church, Cwrt Sart. They took with them many of their furnishings and the two congregations have gained much from each other's fellowship. We extend our sympathy to the members of Paraclete Congregational Church, Newton, Mumbles on the passing of their Secretary, Mr. Peter Holbrook.

Extractions: Congregationalist Beliefs The Chambers Dictionary defines Congregationalism as "a form of Church government where each Church is independent in the management of its own affairs." Whilst this is correct it does not display the motivation or spirit of Congregationalism. Taking their lead from the Acts of the Apostles, Congregationalists believe that everyone who accepts Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour is able to speak with Jesus through prayer. Each Church member has as much right to express his or her understanding of the Divine will as does his neighbour. There is no select Priesthood. The Minister and Deacons are just the leaders in a community of equals. The Church Meeting at which each member has the right to speak and vote is Sovereign in the affairs of the Church. Each member has both the privilege and the duty to represent Christ to other people. This doctrine, known as the

Extractions: These letters graciously have been shared with the Victorian Web by Eunice and Ron Shanahan; they have been taken from their website . The letters give an insight into the daily lives and concerns of 'ordinary' people without whom history would not exist. The letters are a wonderful example of how much history may be gleaned from such sources. This letter from the past is 200 years old, a beautifully written letter in perfectly legible script, addressed to the Treasurer of the Congregational Fund Click on the image for a larger view Robert Maitland, London from Newton Abbot, Devon, and is dated Feby 6th, 1797. The two postmarks are a very over-inked and smudged town stamp of Newton Abbott and the charge mark of 8, covering the cost of a single letter a distance of over 150 miles. This was the rate in force from 1796 to 1801. Newton Abbott is 188 miles from London. The postmark is very difficult to read on the back of the letter, in a different handwriting Click on the image for a larger view I have reproduced the letter as it was written, including odd spellings and abbreviations - for instance 'addresfing' for 'addressing' and 'exprefs'for 'express'. This is the old form of the 'long letter s' when it appears as a double letter in a word. It is the only way to show it on the modern keyboard

Extractions: ongregationalism is a form of Protestant Christianity which asserts the principle that a local congregation is completely autonomous under God and therefore should not submit to any outside, human authorities such as a regional or national synod of elders (as in Presbyterianism ) or a bishop (as in Episcopalianism). Baptists also practice this form of church government, but they are not referred to under the term Congregationalists (or its synonym Independents ). Congregationalists are those who practice this form of polity while also maintaining the practice of infant baptism. Because Congregationalism occupies a much humbler place in the configuration of Christianity today, it is easy to forget its prominence and significance in Victorian England. Likewise Congregationalism was not as numerically significant in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Although Congregationalists were important in the heady, turbulent days of the mid-seventeenth century claiming no less an adherent than the Protector, Oliver Cromwell himself the largest body at that time of what would become known in the Victorian period as "Old Dissent" was the Presbyterians. ("Old Dissent" refers to English denominations outside the Church of England which can trace their history back to the seventeenth century; "New Dissent" refers to the denominations which were founded in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries as a result of the

Greetings From Elgin (1975) First Congregational Church The founders of Elgin, James and Hezekiah Gifford, were such pious men that they observed the Sabbath even when they were in the wagon train that brought them from central New York to Elgin. Nicknamed The City of Churches, Elgin can tout over 100 churches within its city limits. This stems from James Gifford's offer of free land to any organization that promised to build a church. When Elgin was less that a year old, meetings were convened to discuss the creation of a church. The early settlers were equally divided between a Congregational and a Presbyterian Church. Eventually, the Congregational denomination would be chosen. The original church was Hezekiah Giffords log cabin, because James cabin was still being built. They would meet there for two years until a 25 by 30 foot frame building could be built on the northeast corner of DuPage and Geneva streets. By 1843, the Congregationalists were ready for a larger place. The present location was sold to The Baptists and a larger, more impressive church was built. Meetings began there in May of 1844. A bell was placed in the bell tower in 1852. Over the next 16 years, parishioners would leave the congregation to form offshoots of the church in Dundee and Udina, Illinois. By 1857, the Elgin church had the proud distinction of having the largest congregation of any church west of Oberlin.
