Sunday mornings at BCCUCC
Services Livestreamed to Facebook and YouTube
All are invited to join us for our multi-platform worship service at 10 a.m. on Sunday mornings – either in person or online.
Masks are optional but we do ask that if you’re feeling unwell or have symptoms, that you please stay home and watch online. We run large HEPA air filters in the sanctuary and also have HEPA air filters in most spaces in our Education building.
For those unable to join us in person, the services are livestreamed so they can be watched online – either live or later – at
- the church’s Facebook page facebook.com/bccucc
- or our church’s YouTube Channel
Please note that the service can no longer be watched LIVE on our website. However a recording of the service can be watched once the service is over and it’s been posted to the Livestream page of the church website https://bccucc.org/live-stream-2/
A link to the Sunday bulletin can be found on our livestream page.
Nursery Care
The Nursery is available every Sunday morning to provide loving care for infants and children aged 0 – 3 years old. Parents/guardians are welcome to drop off their child/children in the nursery located in the Education building before going to the worship service.
The Nursery Nook, located directly below the sanctuary, is another option for parents with wiggly children of any age to retreat to and still hear the service on the loud speaker down there.
We love the sound of children in worship so parents are welcome to keep their infants and children with them in the sanctuary if they wish. For those who would prefer to worship without distraction, we provide these other options.
Church School Classes
Children from PreK through grade 8 attend the first part of worship service in the sanctuary with their families, then after the children’s message (or communion on the first Sunday) they leave to go to their Church School classes in the Education building. Their teachers will accompany them. More information about the different church school classes are in the 2023-2024 Guide to Faith Formation (see below). On All Ages Worship Sundays, the children remain in the sanctuary for the entire time and the service is more child friendly.
Learn more about Church School and our other programs for children and youth
The 2023-2024 Guide to Faith Formation and Youth Ministry at BCCUCC has a lot of information about the various programs we offer for children and youth at BCCUCC including our Church School, Youth Group, and OWL programs.
Printed copies of the booklet are available for pick up from the narthex table in church, or from outside Andrea’s office in the Education building. If you have questions, please get in touch with our Faith Formation Director, Andrea Bullard at andrea@bccucc.org or (401) 246-0111 x 107m who’ll be happy to answer them.
In the event of bad weather….
We will always do our best to notify you of cancellations, especially if we ever need to cancel Sunday worship. Be sure to check your email, Facebook, and the TV and radio stations. You can also check the RI Broadcasters Closings list. However, in the event that we lose power and/or internet connection we will be unable to post these notifications.
Your safety is important to us, so if the weather is bad but church is going ahead, please don’t come out unless you’re comfortable doing so – even if you’re scheduled to assist in some way with the service. Your wellbeing is the #1 priority.
