where the heck is our steeple?

Welcome to Our Church!

When you first walk through our doors it's hard not to notice the age and beauty of the building. We will be celebrating our bi-centennial in 2027 and it's plain to see that this congregation has loved and cared for its church.

As you mingle with others you'll be joining people who dress comfortably, stylishly or somewhere in between. They greet and talk to one another and there's lots of laughter. You will see children playing. And you'll see fliers for community activities and events taking place at the church because this building is used by many groups.

After the service you are welcome to join us for coffee hour. The china mugs and cloth napkins we use are the most visible evidence of our Green Sanctuary accreditation. We connect our spiritual practice with environmental consciousness and strive to create a sustainable lifestyle in harmony with the environment in all aspects of our church life.

We are growing congregation with over 100 members. As we grow we seek ways to maintain a sense of closeness while opening our doors and hearts to more people. We do that in many ways including circle suppers, adult education classes, pre-school play groups, Small Group Ministry. We are a growing church seeking ways to deeply explore what is spiritual and ethical, to serve the community, and to live our beliefs in the world.

May 31:  “Why Is There Air?”

Last chance for this church year - ask the minister. Bill Cosby's timeless question may be on your mind. Ask away! Ask some old ones. Ask some new ones. Ask anything at all. Get ready for summer while David fires up the grill.
