First Congregational Church is part of the Congregational family of churches in The American Church Story. 106 congregations of the Congregational family gather across Iowa — 2,948 across the United States on The Church Map.

The Congregational churches planted the first colleges in America — Harvard and Yale began as their ministers' training grounds — and launched the modern foreign-mission movement from a New England haystack. Their conviction that a gathered congregation can govern itself under Christ is now shared by most churches in the country.
