Worship Services

Centre Street is a shared-ministry joyfully led by lay volunteers and enthusiastically supported by our wider church family. 
Our Worship Planning Team, deacons, musicians, and lay speakers all work together to provide worship services that are meaningful, Spirit filled, and relevant to the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century.

After all, God is still speaking!


PLEASE NOTE!
Winter worship on Zoom

In January and February, we close our sanctuary and hold worship services exclusively on Zoom. This eliminates the risk of driving on icy roads, saves money on heating, and is gentler on the planet. We still meet at 10:00 on Sundays, and the Zoom link is sent to everyone on our newsletter mailing list on Saturdays.

When?
10:00 on Sunday mornings.

Where?
On the first three Sundays of each month, services are hybrid—held in the sanctuary and streamed on Zoom.
On fourth Sundays, we all meet together on Zoom.

Accessibility?
Our building is fully accessible—the office and vestry downstairs by a street-level entrance, and the sanctuary upstairs by an elevator at the main entrance.

Can I get the Zoom link?
The Zoom link and worship bulletin are delivered to our newsletter subscribers every Saturday morning. Click on the button below to subscribe to our newsletter.

Holy Communion?
We celebrate Communion on the first and fourth Sundays of each month, led by deacons Laurel and Sarina.
Everyone is welcome at our Communion table.


Fifth Sundays?
On fifth Sundays, we worship in more individual, non-traditional ways. Some of us visit other churches, either in person or online, while others spend the worship hour on a hike, in their gardens, or sharing blueberry pancakes in the church vestry.


Are masks required?
Our policy is based on how the CDC categorizes Washington County's Covid transmission level.
  1. Green – low risk. Masks optional.
  2. Yellow – medium risk. Masks required.
  3. Red – high risk. Worship services are held exclusively on Zoom, and the sanctuary remains closed.
