Kittery Point Church Forges Through Centuries of Strife
The First Congregational Church at Kittery Point traces a perilous arc from 1675 Indian raids to 18th century revival. Rev. Benjamin Stevens and later pastors steadied a dwindling flock, with renewed growth under Rev. Steven Merrill and Rev. Tobias Miller. The Old Parsonage, library ties to Howells, and annual collation of historic tours reflect a community weaving faith with memory.
