Rev. Spollett came to First Church in 1984. He has served as an Associate Pastor, Co-Pastor and Senior Pastor over his 38 years here. He is now serving First Church as our Pastor Emeritus.
During Rev. Spollett’s time at First Church we became Open and Affirming, helped found Operation Hope, joined the work of CONECT, hosted our interfaith Annual Holocaust Commemoration on behalf of the town and formed Two Houses One Home with our sisters and Brothers from First Baptist in Stratford. His pastoral care and preaching drew people into a vibrant community of faith where a message of love and inclusion was always loud and clear.
David and his wife Geri raised their two children Andrew and Rachel in Fairfield and now have three grandchildren they dote on in their retirement.
