"Together, we can bridge divides and build a brighter future for all Connecticut families."
This morning, I had the pleasure of joining members of Old Mystic United Methodist Church as they celebrated an incredible milestone — 200 years of faith, fellowship, and service.
For two centuries, the church has been a cornerstone of the Old Mystic community, bringing people together through worship, outreach, and a shared commitment to helping others. It was an honor to present a Connecticut General Assembly citation recognizing this remarkable anniversary and the many generations who have helped shape the church’s legacy.
Congratulations to the entire Old Mystic United Methodist Church family on 200 years of making a difference in our community.
