First Christian Church
The First Congregational Church of Bay Shore is a historic institution that has served its community since 1853, reflecting the rich maritime heritage of the area. Celebrated for its Romanesque Revival Shingle Style architecture, the church features a striking sanctuary with nautical design elements, including an inverted ship's hull ceiling and intricately carved pews, alongside stunning stained-glass windows by renowned glassmakers.
Beyond its architectural significance, the church is a vital community hub that embodies a spirit of inclusivity and service, operating as an independent congregation. Its proactive response to local needs, exemplified by the establishment of a Food Pantry during the pandemic, underscores its commitment to compassion and outreach in the Bay Shore community.
