Sunday Worship Service
Sunday Service
Our Sunday morning gatherings integrate traditional and modern practices to create a purposeful worship experience. We sing, stand for the reading of scripture, engage God’s word during a 25 minute sermon.
In this sermon series we’re looking at the discerning the will of God, whether it’s big life decisions or every day choices, God’s will can direct and guide our lives - if we’re paying attention and have the courage to follow.
On the first Sunday of every month, we celebrate communion together at the Lord’s Table.
Kids Commons
We strive to make Kids Commons a place where all kids can feel safe, be curious, and know they are loved by God.
Nursery is available each week for children birth to 3, and preschool and kindergarten are available each week for 4-6 year olds, which can be joined at anytime during the morning.
We invite 1st to 3rd graders to meet once a month on second Sundays, and 4th and 5th graders once a month on first Sundays right before the sermon for those who would benefit from that specific kind of learning environment.
SoulFood
Please join us after the service for SoulFood, a space to meet, connect, and engage with one another...all over coffee and a bite to eat.

Ash Wednesday Service
Ash Wednesday
Ash Wednesday is a reminder that we are human. A reminder that we have limits. A recognition of our need.
Ash Wednesday is an invitation to hear and respond to the Gospel again, to consider the words of Jesus: "The time promised by God has come at last!” he announced. “The Kingdom of God is near! Repent of your sins and believe the Good News!”
Together, we turn our eyes towards Jerusalem and diligently, deliberately, move to the cross and onward through death to the Hope of the Resurrection on Easter Sunday.
Kids Commons
Rather than offer a separate service for children on Ash Wednesday, we welcome children to join us the service in the sanctuary.

Guys Get Together
More than half of men in America feel really lonely. It can be hard to find genuine, in-person connection, let alone deep friendships.
That's one of the reasons we've created a space for guys at the Commons to get together for food and fellowship. These gatherings are an easy, casual way to get to know and encourage one another in our faith.
This month we'll be meeting at Matthew Alaniz' place in Fulton Hall at Gordon College.
We hope you can make it!
SoulCare Sunday: The Rhythm of Winter
SoulCare Sunday
Instead of gathering in our normal space for Sunday worship, on SoulCare Sunday, we partner with Rolling Ridge Retreat Center to practice Sabbath rest in community and embrace the wonderful rhythms of winter.
The property at Rolling Ridge includes a quiet lakefront, green pastures, paths through the woods, two prayer labyrinths, manicured lawns, as well as gardens and community growing spaces. All only 10 minutes from downtown Haverhill.
A Spiritual Director will guide us through the spiritual practice of lectio in this beautiful outdoor setting . After some time in contemplation, we’ll gather to share our experiences of renewal and rest with each other, creation, and God.
This event is open to adults and children, just let us know how many are attending so that we can plan accordingly.

This time, come in your pajamas or favorite sweats. Think delicious breakfast foods, slow morning, hot coffee, and new year reflections.
The Last Supper of 2024
Some of the most meaningful ways to worship involve being our authentic selves with others who are also being their authentic selves. We hope you’ll join us for a chance to break bread and eat together with glad and sincere hearts.
Candlelight Christmas Eve Service

A heartfelt, traditional New England classic. On Christmas Eve we gather for a special candlelight service to celebrate the birth of Jesus.
It will be a beautiful service, full of familiar Christmas hymns, capped off with the singing of Silent Night by candlelight.

We invite all children to join our main service and we will have an array of activities and coloring pages available for people of all ages in the foyer. (We will not have a separate Kids Commons space on Christmas Eve).
