What to expect on Sunday morning at CSCC
What is the service like?
Our service elements include praying, singing, hearing the Bible read, and listening to a sermon. We sing from hymnals and are accompanied by the piano. You’ll get a bulletin when you walk in, so it is easy to follow along with the service. Just show up and open your heart to God!
Are my children welcome?
Absolutely! Children are always welcome in the sanctuary with their adult(s).
All children can begin in the sanctuary and then, following the opening hymn, those who chose to, can go to Kids Church.
There is a nursery available for anyone who would like to step out of the service for some space. One of our greeters can show you the way. There is a television in the nursery that streams the service.
What should I wear?
Whatever makes you comfortable.
Where do I park?
Either along Church Street near the church, in front of the church along the common, or in the Bridgewater Library parking lot (15 South St, Bridgewater). There are entrances to the church on the Church Street side, and in the front of the building.
Is your facility handicapped accessible?
We have a ramp into the building on Church Street with an elevator just inside the door. Our bathrooms are accessible, and are located on both the first and second floors.
May I come even if I wasn't raised Congregational?
Yes! We welcome everyone of all faith backgrounds.
Are you an Open and Affirming congregation?
Yes, indeed we are. We are proud to welcome all God's children to our community. CSCC officially adopted its Open and Affirming Statement by overwhelming majority vote of the congregation in 2014.
In addition to Sunday morning worship at 10am, both in person and livestreaming on Facebook and YouTube, we have some other items we think might be of interest to you:
If you would like to have a tour of the building while you're there on Sunday morning, please just ask one of the ushers, or Rev. Beth. We'd be happy to show you around.
We have breakfast and potluck lunch events every month, and everyone is welcome to join us. Please see our calendar below for specific dates. In general, breakfast is the first Sunday of the month beginning in October, and potluck lunches are the third Sunday of the month immediately following worship (around 11am), beginning in September. Both run through May or June.
We have a monthly newsletter that is mailed out around the first of the month. It is also sent via email. If you would like to receive the paper version, please drop our church office an email or give us a call. If you'd like to receive it via email (either instead or in addition), use the link on the home page of the website. To see the current (and recent) edition, visit our EVENTS page.
We often have events or projects for which we need volunteers. Visit our Volunteers Page to see what the current opportunities are. Many events welcome both adults and youth.
