​Your presence is a gift and we invite you to visit us on Sunday mornings:
9:00 a.m.       Adult Sunday School
10:00 a.m.    Worship and Children's Time
11:00 a.m.    Refreshments & Second Hour
​

Children are welcome to worship with their family or join other kids in a special worship and faith formation time during the worship service.

We join together on the first Sunday of each month for a community lunch following worship so we have time to talk and connect with each other more deeply.

​On the last Sunday of every month, we worship together as an intergenerational community with worship services planned for God's children of all ages.

The lawn and sanctuary are temporarily closed while we tend to our ailing tower but THE CHURCH IS OPEN!

Sunday services are currently being held in the Chapel at 10:00 a.m. Enter through the Beacon Street entrance at the top of the ramp or through the main entrance off of the parking lot. 

Our bell tower was given in memory of Reverend Samuel Francis Smith, minister of this church from 1842 to 1854 and author of "America,” also known as “My Country, ‘Tis of Thee.” In 1932, on the 100th anniversary of the writing of "America," the tower was rededicated the "America" Tower. 

The tower along with the church building are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. We look forward to restoring this historic landmark. Stay tuned for more information about restoration plans.
