Community Church of Providence

About this church

Community Church of Providence worships on Wayland Avenue each Sunday at 10 a.m. The hour is friendly, casual, and reverent, with an eclectic mix of music, interactive time for children, and preaching. The congregation describes itself as global and close-knit, diverse in ethnicity, family structure, theology, and worship background. Its emphasis on soul freedom encourages people to bring their authentic stories while following Jesus, developing caring relationships, and finding partners for service. An accessible entrance and nearby parking are available from Wayland Avenue, and all church doors open after 9:15 on Sunday morning.

Children begin in the sanctuary, share a children's message, and then move to Sunday School around 10:20; nursery care for ages birth through three is available from 9:30 to noon. A main-floor parents-and-infants room provides a private place for feeding or changing while remaining close to worship. Adult groups change through the year, and the church hosts a Mandarin-speaking campus ministry for Chinese students and scholars connected with Brown, RISD, and the wider region. That ministry meets Friday at 6:30 for a meal, worship, and Bible study. Visitors can therefore enter through the common Sunday service or one of several culturally and relationally focused weekly gatherings.
