        Actions < > Reflections

        First Church Williamstown takes an active, ongoing interest in the rise and influence of Christian nationalism. Our parishioners actively analyze the questions provoked by CN, and we continue to host films, study groups, and speakers to become better informed.  If you are interested in joining the discussion, please reach out to David Langston.
