First Church of Christ, Unitarian

The First Church of Christ, Unitarian, also known as First Church of Christ, Lancaster and colloquially as "the Bulfinch Church", is an historic congregation with its meeting house located at 725 Main Street facing the Common in Lancaster, Massachusetts. The church's fifth meeting house, built in 1816, was designed by noted architect Charles Bulfinch, and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1977, recognizing it as one of Bulfinch's finest works.
==History==

First Church of Christ was "gathered in 1653 by the Puritans of Massachusetts Bay Colony."〔 The town of Lancaster also dates from 1653. The current meeting house was built in 1816 of local brick and slate when Nathaniel Thayer was minister.
On December 30, 1970, the meeting house was added to the National Register of Historic Places〔(First Church of Christ Unitarian website )〕 and designated a National Historic Landmark.〔 Architectural historian G. E. Kidder Smith has called it "one of the great federal style churches in the country."〔G. E. Kidder Smith, ''Sourcebook of American Architecture: 500 Notable Buildings from the 10th Century to the Present'' (New York: Princeton Architectural Press, 1996), p. 160. ISBN 1568980256〕
In May 2010, the Church began a restoration of the meeting house cupola and facade supported by contributions from the Bulfinch Fund, a secular organization dedicated to restoring Bulfinch's works.〔(Restoration begins ) Worcester Telegram and Gazette, May 19, 2010〕 Formerly a Congregational church, it is now Unitarian Universalist. The Reverend Robert Johansen is its current minister.
