Our Sunday morning worship services are central to who we are as a community of faith. We offer a Sunday morning worship service, starting at 9:30 AM , from September through June. On the first Sunday of the month, children are also invited for a special children’s worship that invites broad participation from the children and includes communion. This service runs parallel to the regular communion service for adults. Everyone is invited to Christ’s table regardless of denominational background.
While children are always welcome to stay throughout worship, a number of our services throughout the program year include all generations and are shaped interactively around creative themes. On most Sundays, families typically worship together through the first part of our worship service which includes a special children's message. Children aged 3 through 14 then leave for Sunday School taught by our dedicated volunteer teachers. We also provide nursery care for younger children in a clean and inviting setting. Our church has adopted a safe church policy to ensure a safe and loving environment for all children and youth.
We also have an active and varied music program in our church. We are graced by our dedicated senior choir which regularly enhances our worship with selections of wonderful music. Our junior choir, for boys and girls in grades 3 through 8, also inspires us through song twice a month. Both choirs hold weekly rehearsals and welcome you to join. Occasionally, other church members and friends offer special music selections which includes folk music, rock, and special acapella music by our Sounds of Peace Choir (please follow this link to learn more about their ministry to people in hospitals, nursing homes and those near death).
Our 9:30 AM summer services are shared with South Acton Congregational Church (35 School Street ; 978-263-2332). We worship six weeks in one setting and then six weeks in the other. The officiant is the minister from the visiting church. Please visit our calendar at http://www.localendar.com/public/boxboroughucc for our summer worship schedule between mid-June and Labor Day.
Following all our services is a time of fellowship in our old sanctuary. We hope that you will take time to linger and meet others.
