Worship Information

We recognize that it can be hard to visit a church for the first time but we hope that you feel warmly welcomed and comfortable here as you enter through the big green door! Worship service starts at 10 a.m. every Sunday. All are welcome.

 

Where do I park?

We are located at 145 Main Street in downtown Amesbury, MA. It is beside the Public Library and has parking in the rear of the property. There is also some street parking along Main Street.

 

How long do services last?

Worship lasts about an hour.

 

What should I wear?

Some people come dressed in their Sunday best. Others dress more casually. Either way, we believe that God cares more about the state of our hearts than the state of our attire, and encourage you to dress the way that feels most appropriate to you.

 

What happens during church?

As you enter the church, a friendly face will give you a bulletin that will guide you through the service. All of our services feature reading, preaching, prayer, and music. At times, you will be invited to stand, sing, pray, greet your neighbor, be in silence, or read responsively. Communion is offered at Main Street Church on the 1st Sunday of every month. Our communion table is open to everyone—baptized or not, confessed or not, sure or not.

 

At all of our services we maintain the ancient Christian practice of receiving an offering to support the church’s ministries. We welcome your gifts and encourage everyone to live a life marked by generosity. If you are unable to give financially, please consider an offering of time or talent to the church, another organization, or a neighbor in need.

 

How can I get more information?

Please speak to our pastor or a deacon after the Sunday church service during coffee hour, or call or email our church administrator at 978-388-0982 or admin@main-street-church.org. We’ll make sure your questions are answered.
