Worship at New North


Sunday Services & Church School

Weekly worship services are held at New North every Sunday at 10:30 a.m. from the first Sunday after Labor Day in September through the last Sunday in June. Click here for a sample bulletin     See below for sermon topics

In December, New North holds its traditional Christmas candlelight service at 4 p.m. on the Sunday before Christmas. The entire community is welcome to attend this special service which features guest musicians performing seasonal favorites.

Excellent music has always been an important part of New North services. Guest musicians visit periodically throughout the year to supplement our organist and enrich our worship.

Childcare for younger children is provided in the nursery during services. While we do not currently have a church school program, we hope to revive our past religious education class for children ages 4-13, if there is sufficient attendance. If you are interested, please contact us.

Though the church is closed in July and August, special activities are often held during the summer.
