2023-05-01 - In 1927, Plymouth Congregational Church merged with Union Congregational Church. Its combined membership of 1,200 made it one of the largest Protestant churches in Providence. However, by 1968 the congregation had shrunk to about 140 members, due to members moving to the suburbs. The building was sold in 1971 to the Rhode Island Conference of the United Church of Christ, which that same year sold the building to the Holy Cross Church of God in Christ, a 260-member Black congregation, which remained there until 2015. Iglesia Visión Evangélica, a Latin congregation, acquired the church in 2016. -Jeff Scofield
