Welcome to the historic First Church in Albany. Since 1642 we have been in ministry in the heart of the city, with the city in our heart. As the oldest church in upstate New York, we are deeply committed to a diverse community of mutual care and to the needs of our neighborhood. We worship every Sunday morning at 10:30 a.m. (10:00 a.m. first Sunday in July through first Sunday in September) with child care provided. During the summer months we also provide our unique drive-in worship at 9:00 a.m.

The First Church choir offers music to support and enrich worship at regular Sunday and special services from September to June.

The First Church organ, recently renovated, fills the sanctuary with glorious sound. Special pre-service music is offered at 10:15 a.m. each Sunday during Advent and Lent.

An augmented festival choir, a youth choir, and a hand-bell choir provide special musical offerings several times during the year. Special concerts by the First Church choir and organist and by visiting soloists, organists, and ensembles bring music to the wider community.

We hope that you will come for a visit and stay for a lifetime!
