First Congregational Church of Scarborough

About this church

First Congregational Church of Scarborough, a covenanted member of the United Church of Christ, gathers for worship in Scarborough, Maine, every Sunday at 9:30 a.m. in the sanctuary on Black Point Road. The service includes music from the church's music ministry and a children's message near the beginning. Visitors can write a prayer concern or word of thanksgiving on a card from the pew racks, and the cards are read during the Prayers of and for the People. Communion is celebrated on the first Sunday of each month, and special services mark Advent, Christmas Eve, Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter and Pentecost.

Children may stay in the service after the children's message or go to Sunday School in the Parish Hall. Classes run most Sundays for grades K through 8 during the school year, with music, theater and crafts. Other ministries include a senior choir, handbells, confirmation mentors, greeters, ushers and a food pantry the church sponsors. The site also lists Bible studies, men's and women's fellowship and youth ministries. The church describes its atmosphere as relaxed and casual, with a time of "neighboring" right after the service. Sunday services are streamed live on Facebook, and an account is not required to watch. The church office and mailing address is 161 Black Point Road; confirm service and office hours on the website before visiting.
