Woodfords Congregational Church is a church on Woodford Street in Portland, Maine, United States. Located a few yards west of Woodfords Corner, the church was built in 1959, replacing one which was designed by architects Francis H. Fassett and E. F. Fassett and which stood, on the opposite side of the street,[1] between 1872 and 1956.[2] The original church bell was moved to the new construction.[1]

In 2021, discussions began regarding the sale of one of the church buildings to Community Housing of Maine, to be used for senior housing.[3]
