Sunday at St. Paul's Cathedral
I attended the Sunday evening service at St. Paul's. Organ music was
grandiose and lofty resonating up to the Dome ceilings.
"Every day of the year, we are delighted to welcome many hundreds
of visitors to St. Paul's from different parts of the world. . . . St. Paul's is
the Mother Church of the Diocese of London and worship has been offered
on this site since AD 604. We belong to the Church of England and
the worldwide Anglican Communion. " (Welcome message of the church)
Cafe Paul in the square. Looks familiar in Tokyo as well.

First Church Congregational in Cambridge
The First Church has beautiful Tiffany stained glass windows in the sanctuary. Here are some pictures we took after the Sunday service on September 2, 2007. 
This is the choir section in the sanctuary. Music is always wonderful here at the First Church.

Where is the Brattle Street Church?
According to Leo of the First Church in Boston, the Brattle Street Church was dissoloved. Their property on Comm. Ave. was bought by the Baptist Church as it is seen in this photo. Benjamin Colman's celebrated "broad and catholick" church had disappeared from the contemporary Boston scene.

Followings churches came out from the First Church: the Second Church (Old North), Third Church (Old South), Seventh Church (New Brick), Tenth Church, Hollis Street Church, South Congregational Church, and the Church of the Savior.

The First Church's historian Leo, my guide for the church tour
Anne Hutchinson, an excomunicated Antinomian, and Anne Bradstreet, a Puritan first lady & a poet, from the First Church colonial history are commemorated together on the church wall today.
There is no cross nor Christian symbols in the center being a Untarian-Universalist church.
The old church tower is seen from the top window.
John Cotton was the first Teaching elder of the First Church in its early days.
Charles Chauncey, the opponent of Jonathan Edwards during the First Great Awakening, is one of the most prominent ministers in the history of the "Old Brick."
