The Congregational family of churches carries a long and particular story within the wider Church. Congregational churches descend from the English Independents and Dissenters of the seventeenth century, holding that each local church is complete in itself under Christ. Those that stayed outside the 1972 union that formed the United Reformed Church continue in bodies such as the Congregational Federation and the Evangelical Fellowship of Congregational Churches. A few hundred chapels remain across the UK. The tradition traces its modern form to the 17th century.
It is one of many congregations found across Northern Ireland, one of the most churchgoing parts of the United Kingdom. Ballymena lies within County Antrim, whose county town is Belfast. Visitors are welcome, whether you live in Ballymena or are simply passing through.
