Welcome to The Park Church, Elmira, New York
A United Church of Christ Congregation!

Summer Worship Services - 9:00 a.m.

Renew your spirit this summer with informal, innovative worship services.

Pastor Wayne and several others have begun to plan the summer worship service series that will begin on June 22 and extend to August 31st. The services will begin at 9:00 AM and will be held in Beecher Hall.

On June 29th, Ed and Joanne Herman will lead a worship titled “Sacred Experiences.” It will focus on ways “the Sacred” has entered our lives, whether labeled “sacred” or not.

July 6 is a Communion Sunday in which Pastor Wayne will speak on the various meanings of worship in our lives and the life of our church.

On other Sundays, we may read through the day’s newspaper from a theological/spiritual perspective; or consider the meaning(s) of Communion; or consider what it means to be part of our denomination, the United Church of Christ; or consider the possibilities for Mission, Education, fellowship and Invitation in the life of the church.

We plan to include the children throughout these services, keeping them busy and playing a part in what we do. We’ll be sitting in a circle, not in rows, and we’ll spend some time in small groups on some Sundays.
Come see how new worship forms can touch you in new ways.
