Our intrepid bakers have been baking for three organizations that serve the homeless. We began in May 2020, and have baked, packaged and delivered over 12,000 cookies!! However, we need to redouble our efforts. We need cookies for New Haven Inn, Bill Wilson Drop-In Center and Covenant House. Your baking sends a message of love to our homeless friends at a time when we are not allowed to serve them in person.
All are welcome! Celebrate Easter Week with Us

WORSHIP: The leadership of FCCSJ has decided to return to virtual worship only for at least the next three Sundays (January 2, 9, and 16). While we are sad not to be able to gather in person, we also know that this is the best decision we can make for the safety of our staff and community. The only people in the Sanctuary on Sunday mornings will be those in front of the camera (ministers, reader), instrumental musicians, and the AV team.
First Congregational Church of San Jose is proud to announce we have called the Reverend Carla Dietz to serve as our bridge (transitional) senior minister beginning Nov. 1.
