The church, a National Historic Monument, is located at 44 Union Street in Sag Harbor.

We have many ways for everyone to get involved and participate in the life of this great Church.  We are always in need of ushers and liturgist, singers for the choir, as well as committee members and host for coffee hour (even if you just want to provide a special treat or snack).  As we begin a new year, please consider how you might like to become involved  in the many opportunities we have to serve.  New sign up sheets are available in the social hall for coffee hour host and for providing flowers for the Sanctuary on Sunday mornings.  Thank you for all your help!

Daily Devotionals

Are you looking for a daily on-line devotion tool for 2016? Check out the Presbytery Mission Yearbook at www.presbyterianmission.org  or d365.org for some great material. The Presbyterian Mission site has interesting articles from different parts of the world talking about the various mission projects that the PCUSA is involved with.  D365 is a site that will take you through a meditation on scripture each day and it even provides the music.  Both sites come highly recommended. We also have Our Daily Bread Devotionals (in print form) available outside the church office each month.
