 The Flatbush-Tompkins Congregational Church of Brooklyn is celebrating both its 120th and 145th Anniversaries simultaneously because of a union between two historic churches in Brooklyn. The Tompkins Avenue Congregational Church of BedfordStuyvesant was founded in 1875 and the Flatbush Congregational Church established in 1899. On May 27, 1942, at a Special Corporate Meeting, The Flatbush Congregational Church voted to merge with the Tompkins Avenue Congregational Church. The Tompkins Avenue Congregational Church moved to the Flatbush Congregational Church site in Ditmas Park, located at East 19th Street and Dorchester Road, forming the Flatbush-Tompkins Congregational Church. On October 4, 1942, the first service of the combined churches was held in Ditmas Park. The membership of the merged churches was 4,100, making it the largest Congregational Church in the United States at the time. 

For nearly 150 years Flatbush-Tompkins Congregational Church has been a center of Christian learning, ideas and ideals. 

We are a church that is home to people from dozens of diverse backgrounds and denominations. As heir to the Pilgrim tradition, we are self governing and democratic in style. 

Our mission is to provide a place of worship and learn the will of God.

to provide a place of worship and learn the will of God; to share in Christian fellowship, showing encouragement and love to each other, gaining spiritual strength for our personal needs, and as disciples of Christ, to communicate our love to all people by deeds and actions.
