Sunday Morning Worship (8:30 or 10:00 a.m.) at the Beloved Community

What should I wear?

• Clothes! And shoes/sandals! Be comfortable.
• Some folks will dress up a bit, but most folks wear casual, comfortable clothes
• Like most places, we ask that folks wear shirt, shoes, and pants (or dress/skirt), please! Shorts are fine too.
• Currently we are requiring masks and are encouraging social distancing within family groups to ensure safety 

How long is the service?
It is usually about one hour long.

Is every Sunday morning service the same?
The early services are more formal and the later services are more informal. Our music at the 8:30 am tends to be more traditional with a piano, but has some variety. The 10 am service music is often in a more contemporary style, with both traditional and more modern hymns and songs. We bring a variety of backgrounds to our community, so our worship reflects the diversity of the gifts of the people who gather while we hope to be hospitable to those who might visit and participate.

Is there food? Coming out of the pandemic, some of our "traditions" are still adjusting. We have snacks and coffee as folks bring them in, but there is always good conversation! 

What about the kids? Bring them! They can stay with you in worship (there's a special family section) or there is a nursery for those 4 and under at our 10 am gathering. We expect kids to have the wiggles and giggles; that is all right. The worship space is their space too. We all work on being mindful to help one another hear, see and participate in the gathering!

Which doors do I walk in? Most folks come in through the first set of doors.  When you come in, you should be greeted and someone will point you to the sanctuary (straight ahead if you come in the first set of doors).

Nursery is down the hallway on your left (in the gathering space/narthex)  and on the left side of the hallway.

Bathrooms are down the hallway on your left (in the gathering space/narthex) and on the right side of the hallway by the water bubblers/drinking fountains.

Where should you sit? Wherever you are comfortable.
