Church of the Savior is a progressive, Christian church. We are an inclusive church, and we celebrate our diversity in religious background, race, sexual orientation, gender identity, economic background and abilities. Our members are not required to swear allegiance to a defined set of beliefs. Instead, our beliefs are rooted in God’s extravagant love and welcome to all who seek.
You will be welcome at our church, regardless of who you are or where you are on your spiritual journey. We hope that you will be met here by the living Christ.
We offer worship service at 11:00 AM each Sunday with a choir anthem or special music, a thoughtful meditation on scripture, and Sunday School for children. Childcare is also available for children up to 5 years old in our nursery.
This service is recorded and can be viewed on YouTube later on Sunday.
When?
What?
As long as you're wearing them, feel free to wear whatever clothes you like! You'll see people in jeans, and you'll see people in their "Sunday best". We want you to be comfortable, and what you wear on the outside is not as important to us as what’s in your heart.
We play all kinds of music during service: traditional hymns in English or other languages, contemporary music, and meditative and instrumental pieces.
Worship begins with the ringing of the church bell in our Memorial Garden and includes shared prayers, hymns and songs, choral music, readings from the Christian scriptures and other sources, and thoughtful sermons. We take up an offering to support our ministry together and support many other progressive causes in our community and world. There is also a time where the community shares their joys and concerns.
We love kids! In fact, we offer age-appropriate Sunday school classes with progressive Christian lessons each Sunday during the worship service. Children stay in the service until the Opening Prayer is finished, then go to Sunday school until the end of the service. Of course, children are always welcome to stay with families in the sanctuary. We have special “play mats” with art supplies and story books in the sanctuary.
We also hold many special events and activities for little and not-so-little ones!
We have a nursery where children under the age of five can play while being cared for. Parents are welcome at any of these classes or they may stay in the nursery.
