Deerfield Community Church

About this church

Deerfield Community Church, a United Church of Christ congregation, worships Sundays at 9:00 a.m. in person and on Zoom. The church describes the service as traditional with a contemporary twist, combining music and thoughtful messages around its commitments to worship, prayer, learning, and service. Its welcome explicitly includes believers and questioners across differences in background, ability, family structure, immigration status, race, sexual orientation, and gender identity. Recordings are generally posted afterward for people who cannot attend live.

The congregation’s Deerfield roots reach to a 1766 meetinghouse, while the church at 15 Church Street dates to 1835. Local care is equally central: the Deerfield Food Pantry distributes food to qualifying households on the last Friday of each month, and its Got Lunch program supplies weekly lunch groceries for children who receive free school meals. Christmas Wish Stars helps local families purchase gifts for children sixteen and younger. The church has also sustained partnerships in Haiti since 2009 through trips, supplies, education support, business classes, and microloans. Visitors can start with Sunday worship; pantry clients should call ahead about eligibility rather than arrive without arrangements.
