My name is Christana Wille McKnight. I am a mom to two kids, wife to an awesome husband, and minister at the First Parish Church in Taunton, Massachusetts.
First Parish Church in Taunton has been a small church with big dreams. Sitting near the center of town on Church Green in Taunton, this nearly 400-year-old congregation has made the decision to intentionally revitalize itself, and hired me as their full-time minister to help lead the way!
Our spiritual community is focused around the ideas of meaning, purpose and joy. Our goal is to be a community that is relevant to people – a place that makes a difference and changes lives. Our Sunday mornings are about inspiration and joy, and our small groups are places where everyone can connect.
If you are in Massachusetts or Rhode Island and would like to join us, please feel free to email me at cmcknight @ uuma . org and learn more about our community! If you come from across the country, but would like to know more about what we are doing in Taunton or me, please also feel free to email any time, or check us out on Facebook.
I would love to know more about what you are doing! Our tiny beloved congregation is struggling and disappearing before our eyes. We have a small core of committed leaders currently, but of course we are all aging and there is literally no one to take our place.
