Part of First Church Boston’s mission is to be a resource and asset for our community.
We recently added a Little Free Library which offers everyone a way of sharing and giving books. The church’s stepped outdoor amphi theatre provides a great place to sit down to browse a book or read.However October is an especially busy month for us and our neighbors.
The John Winthrop School for Young Children has been occupying space in our building since 1966 and had their annual Street Fair, the third Saturday of October. Free and open to the public, it always provides a great get-together for families and the neighborhood and we had a table there.
The Boston Book Festival used our auditorium and sanctuary on October 17 when the entire Back Bay celebrated books and ideas
with free discussions and book-related events throughout the Back Bay. https://bostonbookfest.org/
Halloween was another must-see & do in the neighborhood! First Church Boston offered sweet treats (and bathrooms!) to all the families who come to the neighborhood for “Trick or Treat”.We celebrated the season with our neighbors!
