WORSHIP WITH US!
We worship every Sunday at 10:30 AM, at 655 Stillwater Road, Stamford, CT 06902. We also livestream our services on Facebook live.
WORSHIP
Worship at FCC is a time to reconnect with the Divine, with self, and with others. We value music, art, silence, community, ritual, prayer, and preaching. We seek to blend "traditional" worship with modern and creative expressions of Divine love. Sunday morning worship is a time of celebration!
SERMONS
The preacher’s sermons are not dogmatic declarations of what is true, but thoughtful reflections that invite congregational response, personal and communal, and are meant to prompt the listening congregation to their own reflections. If you want a dogmatic approach to religion where the answers are more important than the questions, then FCC may not be for you. If you care to be on a journey of discovery, to embrace ambiguity, to live the questions both ancient and modern, then come and see. As a Christian community, we are grounded in the Scripture and Christian ritual, but that doesn't mean you have to agree with everything or even identify as Christian to join us. We are a congregation of questioners and seekers!
FAITH FORMATION
We offer two programs for our children on Sunday mornings. Children aged 0-5 are welcome in our nursery, where they can be dropped off before service and enjoy playtime with our trained nursery staff. Children aged 5-12 are welcome to join us in the sanctuary for the first portion of worship. After our gathering songs, children are invited to Sunday School, where they engage in faith-based learning, activities, and games with our incredible teachers. We want our children to feel right at home, and know that church is a place of safety, community, and fun! All of our volunteers and staff are vetted and background checked.
COMMUNION
As a United Church of Christ (UCC) congregation, we practice a radically open communion table. All people are invited to partake in communion, no criteria, no questions asked. We celebrate the sacrament of communion on the first Sunday of every month.
FIESTA
Our Sunday worship services and every time we meet is a fiesta. We experience faith as a come-as-you-are dinner party where music, food, and friendship flourish. We strive to cultivate faith as a community where relationships are meaningful.
As a church, we embrace a fiesta where everyone is welcome. We sing traditional hymns and contemporary songs. We celebrate and practice love as a verb, not as a noun. It’s who we are and who we want to become more and more: people who love their neighbors as God has loved us just as we are.
