Ecumenical Services

Ecumenical Thanksgiving Service

It has been our tradition since 2018 that on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, our community joins with other area churches (North Scituate Baptist Church, Shepherd of the Valley United Methodist Church and St. Joseph’s Roman Catholic Church) to offer thanksgiving at a non-sacramental liturgical service. Clergy members from most parishes in Scituate participate in the service. A combined choir offers an offertory anthem. The offering collected at the service supports an outreach ministry of one of the parishes.

Ecumenical Easter Sunrise Service

The Easter Sunrise service is a longstanding North Scituate tradition. This ecumenical service takes place on Easter morning each year just as the sun rises over the Scituate Reservoir at the Horseshoe Dam on Danielson Pike in North Scituate. This well-attended service includes readings, a brief homily, intercessory prayers and music. A light reception is held immediately following the service at one of the participating parishes.
