Join us at Summer Coffee Hour 10:00am (after service).

Honoring loved ones through Memorials

If you wish to honor a family member or friend on a special Sunday, you could donate money for the Altar Flowers ($60) or Wine, Wafers & Candles ($25). Please contact Peg Wehner at 603-889-5067 or pegwehner44@gmail.com to discuss your wishes.

Contemplative Prayer

Every Monday at 11:30am

Contemplative prayer is a practice of centering yourself in prayer and opening to God's presence. After Prayer we will move to the Lounge for lunch and book discussion. We will be reading books that deepen our spiritual journey and challenge us to broaden our theological understanding.

Morning Prayer

Every Wednesday at 9:30am

Start your Wednesday with Morning Prayer.

Recovery Dinner Church Sat. 7/29, 5:30pm

Held on the last Saturday of each month, this event provides a welcoming place to gather around a common table and enjoy food and fellowship.

Registration Open for Fall Tri-Dio Sacred Ground Circles

Are you interested in joining others from around the Episcopal Dioceses of Northern New England in a film-based dialogue series on race and faith? The second round of Tri-Dio Sacred Ground dialogue circles will start in Fall '23!

Many CGS folk participated in Sacred Ground last year and deeply value the experience.

Three circles will be formed to meet at different times: Wednesday morning, Wednesday afternoon, and likely Thursday evening.
