The records show that prayer meetings were being conducted in the late 1930s and the New Britain Church of God was officially organized on February 4, 1944.
Reverend T. Seamans served as the first pastor, with his wife Grace Seamans serving as church clerk. Both of them worked at a boy’s home in Meriden, CT, a town about twenty miles away from New Britain.
The first church met in a storefront building on East Street, and then the congregation moved to a location on the corner of Laselle and Tremont Street. This building was erected and only the basement of the church was completed. The people then bought a church already built on Gold Street. In 1972-1973, the property was bought and the present building was erected here at 1364 Stanley Street. The congregation moved into the new facility September 2, 1973, for worship
