Join Us for Worship

Welcome!

Sundays are a great time to visit us – in person or online. We gather every Sunday at 10 AM EST in our beautiful, light-filled sanctuary for inspiration, reflection and connection.

Our worship service lasts about an hour and typically includes music, readings, a time for prayer and meditation, and a sermon.  Our wide-ranging topics and music make each service unique.

Join Us In Person!

If you’re visiting us in person, we suggest that you enter the sanctuary through the main doors facing Fern Street. Let our greeters know that you’re visiting so we can welcome you and offer more information about our church.  We encourage you to sign our visitor book and make a name tag so our Welcome Team will know you’re here.

  • Wondering What to Wear?

Among our pews you will see a wide range of attire from sport coats and dresses to casual shirts and jeans.

  • Options for Children

Childcare is available every Sunday for babies and toddlers. Older children attend church school classes from September through May. They begin their morning in the Sanctuary and leave for their classrooms after approximately 15 minutes. Children are always welcome to stay with their families in the sanctuary, if that works better on any given Sunday. For more information, contact the religious education team prior to your first visit.

Fellowship Hour
  • After the Service

Join us in Fiske Hall for our lively Fellowship Hour for refreshments and conversation. Ask for a member of our Welcome Team or feel free to mingle – we’re a friendly, welcoming group!

We also host an informal First Sunday Visitors’ Coffee for visitors who are interested in learning more about the church. Join us in the parlor after the service.

Ask anyone with a name tag to point you in the right direction!

Accessibility

  • Wheelchair Access

Our building is equipped with an elevator and is wheelchair accessible. Enter through our glass entryway on the left (east) side of the building and turn right. An elevator is located in the stairwell. Take the elevator to the main floor and follow the signs to the sanctuary.

  • Accessible Restrooms

A wheelchair-accessible restroom is located behind the Sanctuary at the far-right end of the hallway. Another accessible restroom is located across from Fiske Hall. A small restroom is in the coatroom in the front lobby of the church, but it is not wheelchair accessible.

  • Assistive Listening

Assistive Listening Devices available from our worship ushers in the Sanctuary.
