We are a member of the Southern New England Conference of the United Church of Christ (UCC), a progressive denomination that grew out of the congregational tradition dating back to the Pilgrims.

We are open and affirming, which means our congregation voted to welcome LGBTQ+ people into the full life of our church. Our church is very diverse, with people of all gender expressions and races, and from many religious backgrounds and countries, in our pews.

We are a growing, joyful, friendly, music loving church, OPEN TO ALL—come visit!

Not at all—just show up on Sunday at 10 AM to 6 Clover Street, Worcester, MA!

Everyone is welcome, no matter who you are, what your background is, and where you are on life’s journey.

Our service is every Sunday at 10AM and lasts approximately one hour.

It is followed by our community coffee hour, which offers the chance to have a snack and connect with others.

There is a small parking lot with several handicap spaces on the Knox Street side of the church. There is ample free street parking on Clover Street as well.

We offer Sunday School classes for all children most Sundays. Children begin the service in the sanctuary with their parents and then are invited downstairs to the classrooms by our teachers.

The last Sunday of the month is Family Sunday, when the children stay in the sanctuary with their parents for a family-oriented service.

Yes, there is an elevator to take you from the parking lot level (Knox Street entrance near the handicapped spaces) to the sanctuary and meeting room upstairs. If you park on Clover Street there is a ramp to the door.

There is a shortened pew in the front of the sanctuary that accommodates a wheelchair. We have gender neutral, wheelchair accessible bathrooms. We have loop hearing devices available in the narthex as well.

You will be greeted at the door (main Clover Street entrances) and offered a bulletin, which is a program that allows you to follow along with the service. Readings and song lyrics are in the bulletin and are also projected on a screen.

You may sit anywhere you like. There is no dress code. You are encouraged, but not required to take part in the service readings, prayers and songs.

Our church is very diverse and we seek to help everyone feel welcome!
