  Believing that learning is a life-long quest, educational opportunities are offered for all ages. In addition to Sunday School for preschool, elementary, youth and adults, other study groups including Bible, justice issues and interfaith, are offered on a regular basis.
• Our Facilities

  

  Built in 1955 our spacious sanctuary comfortably seats 200. Our newly remodelled parlor is a great place to relax and chat during "coffee time" and our 1,800 sq ft "Fellowship Hall" is flexible, durable and boasts a full kitchen.
• Nursery

  

  Parents and grandparents need to check out the nursery. We have lots of fun and even learn along the way. We listen to Bible stories, do arts and crafts, sing, play games and even get a snack. All this while you go to worship service. Our nursery is headed by Judi Marcotte who has earned a degree in Education of Young People and is First Aid and CPR certified. Newborn through pre-school aged children only.
