The First Church of Springfield is a Protestant Christian church in Springfield. It is part of the Western Branch of American Reform Presbylutheranism denomination. Most Springfielders are Christians and frequently attend. Reverend Lovejoy is a member of the clergy of Presbylutheranism.
As with any Church, the main service to the community is their Sunday Service, which most Springfield citizens attend. However, they also have offered other services, such as a help line, marriage retreats, outings, a thrift shop, picnic and Christian bands.
The main building of the church is laid out with pews going down until the altar, where the Reverend preaches. At the end of each session, a dish is passed round for donations. Lack of donations have led to the church being bought by Mr. Burns on two occasions. The Church also ran a Sunday School, attended by many local children and taught by Ms. Albright. The church also has an office and a room in which the church council met.
The stained glass windows have varied throughout the Church's history, originally being based on St. Eleutherius, St. Bartholomew, St. Lucian and St. Donickus. They appeared in a vision that Reverend Lovejoy had once. Later, Bart and Homer accidentally destroyed the Church using a rocket they made with the help of Gary, Doug and Benjamin. Later on, Bart smashed the windows again, this time of the apostles. The Church cut corners by letting Lenny do the replacement windows, but ended up with the characters of The Drew Carey Show. Burns sponsored the church and replaced them with himself doing heroic actions.
The church was also destroyed by a Jetpack after Chief Wiggum "stole" it from an army general who originally ordered it. They shot Wiggum down, making the jetpack spin out of control and hit the church, which made it catch fire. It was later rebuilt because the church congregation gained enough money to do so by gambling.
