First Church in Sterling
A church where members are associated with the Unitarian Universalist Association, the United Church of Christ, or are interdenominational members.

First Church has served as a temporary emergency shelter when needed in the community.

The Fire Department grants us a temporary permit to house those in need.  For example, during the 2008 ice storm, which left thousands without heat or electricy for days and weeks, First Church literally became a harbor in the storm.

  

Should there be a community-wide disaster, feel free to either call or stop by to find out if First Church has been activted as an emergency shelter.  Additionally, shelter information will generally be available through the Red Cross, the  Town of Sterling websites, on area radio stations, and on various media websites.
