A Thought for Reflection “If the scandal of Jesus was that He was always touching the wrong people and inviting the wrong people to the table—how on earth can we think the Communion meal now is for the extra holy or the super spiritual? —Jonathan Martin GOD GATHERS US Prelude Greetings and Announcements Passing of […]
Worshipping at Edwards Church
Join us in person or on live-stream every Sunday at 10 am. For live-stream, click here.
On Sundays, we praise God for the wondrous gifts we have been given. We sing with joy and listen to the word of God to understand what it means in our daily lives. Our creative gifts– music, drama, art, stories, and poetry–are shared to inspire and uplift us. Once a month we serve Communion, which is open to everyone of all ages and backgrounds.
In Worship most Sundays, before children go to Christian Explorers, there is a special message for the Young People. Our children join us again for the end of worship. On the first Sunday of each month, young people remain in the sanctuary, with a special message, a craft in our Tent of Meeting, then sharing in Holy Communion with their families.
For very young children, we have small activity packs with crayons, located as you enter the Sanctuary.
We have periodic special worship services including an outdoor service, jazz and poetry themes, special music at Christmas and Easter, and periodic combined services with Plymouth Church.
We hope you will join us!

Seeds of Grace This Fall
Our Seeds of Grace evening worship services continue, with a new schedule and a new leadership model. On the third Sunday of each month, we will gather in Sue Dickerman Hall for a relaxed, creative, participatory worship service, led by Rev. Isaac Everett and members of the Seeds of Grace Worship Team. It’s a great […]
Parking for Everyone
As we move into our busy fall season, we are reminded of our parking challenges. If you are able to walk up from the lower lot or (better yet!) the Stapleton School lot, please make a practice of parking in one of those two lots on Sunday mornings! You’ll get a little Sunday morning exercise, […]

Summer Music Plans
Following our final choir service of the year, someone said to me, “Now you get to start planning it all over again!” How astute they were, because as the choir takes a break for a few months, my work shifts to a heavier focus on the administrative planning that will alleviate autumnal stress as […]
Season of Thanks
As we wrap up our choral season at Edwards Church, I stand as ever in awe at the commitment made year after year by these fine volunteers I call my friends. It’s been an amazing year with many new anthems, many special services, and several opportunities for guest musicians to join the fun throughout the […]
