Mensaje de Ármann Kristjánsson

The Park Street Congregational Church is an iconic landmark in Boston’s Downtown area. Established in 1809, the church has a long and illustrious history with its steeple visible from many of the city's neighborhoods, having been the tallest building in the United States for nearly two decades! The church was founded by members of the “Religious Improvement Society” who sought to create a place of worship with orthodox Trinitarian theology, and later played a role in the abolition of slavery, hosting William Lloyd Garrison's famous address to the Colonization Society. Further, it is famously known as the site of Charles Finney's revival meetings that led to the spiritual awakening of the pastor, Andrew Leete Stone. Today, it continues to be an active evangelical congregational church connected to Park Street Kids and Boston Trinity Academy, and is home to ministries engaging in acts of social justice.
