Holidays & Special Services

The life of faith unfolds through seasons of celebration, reflection, and renewal.

Throughout the year, our worship follows the rhythms of the Christian calendar while also honoring moments that shape our shared life as a church and community.

From the joy of Christmas and Easter to services of remembrance, justice, and blessing, these gatherings mark important moments in the spiritual life of our church.

All are welcome to join us.

Faith and Justice in Worship

As a congregation of the United Church of Christ, we believe faith calls us to care for our neighbors and our world. Throughout the year, our worship often lifts up themes of justice, compassion, and community.

These themes may include areas such as:

  • racial justice

  • immigration and sanctuary

  • housing and homelessness

  • LGBTQ+ inclusion and dignity

Worship inspires both spiritual growth and faithful action in the world.
