Sunday With the Mather School


Join us for a special message given by Anthony Marshall of the Mather School, one of our key community partners. As we prepare to celebrate the school’s 385th birthday, Anthony will share reflections that connect our shared history and the importance of community. You won’t want to miss this meaningful service!

Worship Leader: Anthony Marshall
Worship Associate: Michelle Oyie
Music Leaders: Dan Loschen & the FPD Choir


We welcome you, whoever you are, whatever tradition, gender, race, class, sexual identity, ability, or age you represent. May you grow in the ways of respect, service, and wholeness. And through all your days may you know that you are loved.

We are a lay-led congregation, meaning services and spiritual leadership are provided by community members rather than a designated minister. This reflects our commitment to shared ministry, where all members participate in roles such as worship leading, pastoral care, social justice work, and other community activities.

🛜 Join us at Meetinghouse Hill every Sunday at 11AM either in person in the Sanctuary or in spirit from wherever you may be using this Worship Link.

👪 Family-Friendly Services: Families, we cherish your presence. Bring your children and let them be part of our Worship Service until the Time for All Ages concludes. Following that, they can join their Sunday School teachers. Nursery care is available starting at 9:30 AM each week.

☕ Social Hour: Following the service, we invite you to join us in the Parish Hall for a cozy community coffee hour, offering a chance for fellowship and lively conversation. We hope to see you there!

🎧 Accessibility: To enhance your experience, we offer child and sensory-friendly fidgets and noise-canceling headphones.


After service today, please join us to celebrate the 80th Birthday of our Friend & Favorite Photographer, Robert Bayard Severy. Coffee hour will be a little more robust as we welcome a few of Robert’s Family & Friends. He’s an essential part of the fabric of our community!
