Community-Based Ministries

The Church is reaching out to populations who are not regularly attending conventional congregations. Based on a particular common experience like service in the armed forces or being homeless, the Church is proclaiming the Good News of God’s love for all in a variety of new forms and in unlikely places. Much of this work is done through grants or on a very limited budget. New forms of gathering, hearing God’s Word, sharing a meal and being sent form have emerged. We are happy to share the good things being done in Jesus’ name. We ask your prayers for these new and unconventional works of love and praise.

Cathedral of the Beloved

Pittsfield

An outdoor interdenominational community. Where love is enacted: in coffee shop conversations, on sidewalks, in acts of gratitude, through clean clothes and a warm meal.

Church Without Walls

Springfield

We gather each Sunday at noon, regardless of weather, in Court Square in Springfield, MA for worship and fellowship. Our church is open to everyone and is led by area clergy. Please come join us!
