All Souls Church Service Times
From the Sunday after Labor Day, through mid-June, we have two services each Sunday — one at 10 am, and the second at 11:15 am.
Both of these services are substantially the same, though families with children are particularly encouraged to join us at 10 am, when we often include special worship elements designed for all ages.
We do have nursery care for babies and those under 5 years old, and religious education programs for children at both 10 and 11:15 am.
Additionally, special activity baskets are available for families whose children prefer to remain in the service with their parents.
It's been more than 3 years since the last service times update. Please make sure to contact the church to confirm service times.
