Mayflower Congregational UCC Church

Chili, conversation, and community—what could be better? Yesterday’s Music Board Chili Luncheon exceeded its $5000 goal by several hundred dollars! Thank you to everyone who cooked, donated, and showed up. Your support keeps our music ministry strong and ready for 2026 celebrations!

Mayflower now offers two opportunities for worship each week:

Morning Prayer at 8:30am is a 30-minute come-as-you-are service of liturgy, music, sacred silence, and prayer.

Morning Worship at 10:15am is our familiar service with hymns, music, scripture, prayer, and sermon.

See you on Sunday!
