Our "heritage" in brief: Ours is the oldest parish in Scituate, dating back to the Nonconformist “Men of Kent” and their families who covenanted here in 1634 with the Rev. John Lothrop, upon his exile from England for advocating freedom of conscience and the separation of church and state. These “pillars” of the church are the familiar names Hatherly, Cudworth, Gilson, Turner, Cobb, and Foster.
Built on the ancestral land of the Massachusett and Wampanoag, our church began with a small log cabin on Meeting House Lane. The fifth meeting house (the Old Sloop) was built in 1774 on the present site; it burned down in 1879 and was rebuilt into today’s church.
