Indoor Worship

We have two worship services, at 10 AM and 11 AM, to enable us to maintain safe distancing and still accommodate all who want to worship in person. In order to manage numbers for the services, we ask that you register for worship ahead of time here, clicking on the sign up button or calling the church office. We ask that those with last names beginning A-L worship at 10 AM and those with last names beginning M-Z worship at 11 AM, if possible, to help us manage numbers at the services. Of course, having you worship is the most important thing, so please use that as a guideline and register for the service that best fits your schedule. Mask-wearing is required, but we will provide masks for anyone who does not have one.

Our worship team has worked hard to ensure that we comply with state and local guidelines to keep people safe.

Denomination Affiliation

The United Church of the San Juans is an ecumenical united church that became affiliated with four mainline denominations in April 2005: Lutheran (ELCA), United Methodist, Presbyterian (USA), and United Church of Christ. Each member of the church is officially a member of all four denominations. Our church will receive help from the four denominations in finding pastors to serve the church, in obtaining resources for worship and education, and in meeting state and federal obligations. Donations from the church help to support the worldwide mission efforts of the denominations. We provide a presence for them in our locale, an area with insufficient population to support separate churches for all of them. Through our ecumenical affiliation and other efforts, we seek to promote Christian unity and understanding.

About us

In 2003 a group of Christians in our area met to discuss the possibility of starting a new church to serve the needs of people, love Christ, focus on more traditional worship, and respect and be open to others.

Worshipers from all Faiths are Welcome! Worship service is Sundays at 10 AM and 11 AM. Registration is encouraged. 10 AM is live-streamed on Facebook.
