A New Church Start in Mashpee

The New Mashpee Congregational Church, UCC held its initial worship service on May 4, 2008, and now averages 80 in worship. Rev. Jim Scovil is the founding pastor. The church is currently "in care" of the Barnstable Association, aspiring to be self- sufficient and a full status member congregation by 2011.
