Countryside Community Church

An inclusive family of faith. Countryside is affiliated with The United Church of Christ.
Countryside was born into the denomination known as The Congregational Church, one of the oldest denominations in America, and remains strong in the New England states where we started with the beginnings of our nation, including the pilgrims and the puritans. In 1957 there was a merger of four American Christian denominations, including our parental stream, The Congregational Church, the Reformed
In Genesis 12:1-9, Abram’s call to “go” is also a leaving—a kind of exodus from what has shaped him but can no longer hold him. As this reflection reminds us, even liberation can take time, unfolding slowly as we learn what to release and what to carry forward.
What might you be invited to leave behind as you step into something more free?

"Go Anyway… But Who Gets a Say?"
Genesis 12:1-9
“Go anyway…” sounds brave until you start asking who is telling us to go—and who benefits from us staying.
In Genesis 12:1-9, Abram’s call is also a release—from what is familiar but no longer life-giving. Sometimes blessing begins with loosening our grip on what we’ve always known.
What might you be invited to leave behind in order to step toward something more whole?

"Go Anyway… But Who Gets a Say?"
Genesis 12:1-9
We are created in and for relationship — called to live, love, and grow in community. But community doesn’t simply happen. It is nurtured through presence, care, and the ways we choose to show up for one another.
Join us this Sunday as Jenny reflects on “Showing Up Together” through Matthew 28:16–20 and Wendell Berry’s “Sabbath Poem X” (1982). Take a moment to reflect on the communities that sustain you — and how you are called to help sustain others.
Join us in person or online. You are welcome here at Countryside.

At Pentecost, wind and fire don’t just signal something dramatic—they signal a widening: of voice, of understanding, of belonging.
Rev. Charlene’s message, “Wind and Fire,” invites us to consider what it means to be a people shaped by the Spirit’s expansive work among us.
As one reflection reminds us: we will not be met by Christ and told we loved too many people, showed too much grace, or included too wide a circle.
Where might the Spirit be inviting us to widen our circles of care, compassion, and belonging today?

"Wind and Fire"
Acts 2:1-21
At Pentecost, wind and fire break open something new—language, understanding, and community shaped by the Spirit’s movement.
Rev. Charlene’s message, “Wind and Fire,” invites us to consider what it means to be heard and understood across difference—and also where we are called to resist forcing one single way of understanding the Holy.
Where in your life are you sensing the Spirit inviting deeper listening? And where might God be stretching your understanding of unity and difference?

There is a quiet freedom in knowing we are already held.
Not striving to become beloved but living from the truth that we already are — that belonging is not earned, but given.
What would change if you trusted, today, that you are already home in God’s love, already part of the family of things?
May we learn to live from belonging, not toward it.
