TheRidgefieldPress.com: First Congregational Church calls 20th minister in 295 years

TheRidgefieldPress.com: First Congregational Church calls 20th minister in 295 years:
"The First Congregational Church of Ridgefield has called the Rev. Dr. Charles Hambrick-Stowe as its new senior minister. Dr. Hambrick-Stowe will serve as only the 20th senior minister of Ridgefield’s oldest church.

The First Congregational Church was established in 1713, meeting in a small public house on the Green at the head of Branchville Road. ..."
It's interesting to contemplate all the history that this congregation passed through on its way to the 21st century.
