In his early youth he joined the Trinitarian Church on High street, and in 1872 he became a a charter member (perhaps the youngest) of the West Medford Congregational Church, of which his father was one of the first deacons. He was a leader among its young people and later a deacon. He was well qualified to take up the work (previously assigned to former President Brown, so suddenly taken from us) of preparing the Register's history of that church. During his later years he was connected with the Mystic Church—one of its deacons, emeritus at the last, doing some fine historical work at its seventy-fifth anniversary.

During the five years he thus served, in which were strenuous days and exacting duties (two of the vice-presidents being laid aside by sickness), your president found him his right-hand man, and during the following five years, in our reversed positions, he was ever striving for our welfare and success. Appointed upon the city's committee for Patriot's Day he entered heartily into the plans for the coming Revolutionary memorial and was one of the Minute Men of 1925. That was his latest public work. Illness in May prevented his doing more. In bodily weakness he returned to his daily duties and his persevering zea kept him at his office till a certain line of work was finished.
