CCDC Today
The Church of Christ at
Dartmouth College:
An Open and Affirming, Creation Justice Congregation of the United Church of Christ.
We are a multi-generational congregation founded in 1771, by the Reverend Eleazar Wheelock, who founded Dartmouth College less than two years before. Since 1957, we have been a member congregation of the United Church of Christ. We are a Christ-centered and inclusive community. We open our doors wide to all people who long to be a part of a vital congregation. As you get to know CCDC, you will find both a variety of opportunities for our members and friends to connect with one another in meaningful ways, and opportunities to serve God in the community. If you have questions and would like to know more about this church, you are invited to contact Pastor Mandy Lape-Freeberg by email or Pastor Andi Lloyd by email or by phone at 603 ᐧ 643 ᐧ 3150.
I hope that you will find a spiritual home here at CCDC.
