Old South Church is part of the Ecumenical, union and community churches family of churches in The American Church Story. 11 congregations of the Ecumenical, union and community churches family gather across Massachusetts — 373 across the United States on The Church Map.
Union and community churches are the living proof that traditions can share a building, a pastor, and a table. In small towns across America they kept the doors open by becoming one congregation instead of three struggling ones — and no one had to stop being who they were.
