The origin of Wading River Congregational Church dates back to the founding of Wading River in 1671. The church officially became The Wading River Congregational Church in 1785. The current building, built in 1837 with additions in early to mid-1900s, is a Riverhead Town landmark. Many of its families are deeply rooted in the community. The current Pastor, TJ Turner, ordained in the Conservative Congregational Christian Conference (CCCC), joined the church in 2012. We are congregational with a wide variety of firmly held views.
WRCC is made up of mostly well-educated, middle-class and upper-middle-class people. It is a Biblical, Gospel-centered church with a big-tent approach to theology.
We expect that you have already led one or more such transitions.
We expect you to lead us in Gospel based worship services and discipleship.
