Faunce Memorial Church was founded over 120 years ago by Rev. William Faunce.

Faunce has never been a “big” church compared to many other local congregations. We are not the “oldest” in town, nor situated right in the hub of Plymouth. We don’t have any unique doctrine that would set us apart from other Bible-believing churches, no secret handshakes or affiliation with a larger denomination.

What we do have, however, makes Faunce very unique.

First of all, we are committed to being an expression of the early Christian church that Jesus started, as close as possible, without the plethora of man-made traditions that have arisen over the years. That is expressed in our commitment to the Good News of salvation through Christ, our adherence to Biblical standards, and even through how we govern our church, through a plurality of elders, rather than a single, professional clergy.

At the moment we are also in a unique position in that there are no salaries being paid out- everyone serves completely as volunteers. Couple that with the fact that substantial sacrifices were made in the past (much by William T. Faunce, Rev. Faunce's son), both in property and wealth, to allow the church to be self-sustaining. This means that the church doesn’t need to lean upon its members to make a weekly budget. Everything that does come into the offering plate can be utilized 100% for the mission of furthering the Kingdom of God.

We look are looking forward to have more “unique” people join us in our journey. People who seek to be part of something that fulfilling the call to disciple all nations. A church that invests in people, in substantial and tangible way. For more information, email us at elders@fauncechurch.org.
