Pastors Message

A warm welcome to our Web Site! Whether you are a church member, or a visitor to our Web Site, we are glad you have taken the time to make a virtual visit to the Stratford Street United Church, W. Roxbury, MA. We've been expecting YOU! The doors are open to you, and the table is set. No matter who you are, or where you are on life's journey, you are welcome here!

Ours is a joyful community, rich in the gifts of the Spirit, and grounded by grace. We are keenly aware of our many blessings as individuals, and as a church, and we strive to share generously with others through mission and ministry.

The folks who grace our pews on Sunday morning come from a variety of backgrounds. Some are long time members; others are new to the congregation.Together, we are a church family that takes seriously, Jesus' simple words, "Come, and follow me."

Though we are committed to the celebration of one anothers joys, and the sharing of one anothers burdens, our outreach continually goes far beyond our doors. As our order of worship reminds us each Sunday, we are "Called to Community, Transformed by grace, and Sent to Serve."

Guests on Sunday mornings have recently said of our service, "It was like coming home." So, we cordially invite you to "come home." Whatever questions you bring to the church will be welcomed. Whatever faith you bring to the worship of a Loving God, will be faith enough.

Come and worship with a welcoming congregation, and we hope you will stay for fellowship, coffee, and conversation immediately following the service.
