We extend a warm welcome to visitors to attend worship services on Sunday mornings in our sanctuary and on Zoom. Check the Upcoming Services on the home page for information on how to join.

We also offer opportunities for in-person and virtual gatherings, including Small Group Ministry groups, book discussions, and “just for fun” social activities.

What happens on Sunday mornings?

We gather on Sunday mornings at 10:30 a.m. to celebrate that which is most worthy to us: to share our concerns for our own lives and for the world, and to experience the joy and express gratitude for our being. We begin all together—children, youth, and adults—opening our services with song. Come as you are, and are able. You will find a warm welcome.

Our children celebrate their own learning after the Story for All Ages, moving to the parish hall for age-friendly exploration. We have childcare for our youngest friends throughout the morning.

Our services are about an hour long, though sometimes the spirit needs a bit more time to be appreciated! They typically include lighting of the chalice, announcements, hymns, music, readings, unison readings, silent meditation, and a sermon or homily. About one-quarter of our services are led by guest ministers or lay members of the congregation.

Recordings of complete worship services are available on our YouTube channel. 

Following the service and learning time, all are invited to gather in the parish hall for fellowship and refreshments.

Please review our updated COVID protocols before you come. Masks are now optional. Seating by the windows is reserved for folks who prefer to wear masks and observe social distancing.

Hearing Assistance

Theodore Parker Church offers a loop system for the hard of hearing in our sanctuary. Hearing aid wearers with a “T” (telecoil) setting can now hear the service broadcast directly through their hearing aids. Others desiring hearing assistance may check out a portable receiver and headset from one of the greeters.
