At South Shore UMC, we offer two Sunday worship services.
-
Traditional: Our 8:30 a.m. service is a spirited traditional style of worship led by a choir. This service features traditional hymns, choral anthems, instrumental special music, and historic statements of faith in the Church.
-
Modern: Our 11:00 a.m. service is driven by a worship band playing the latest in contemporary worship music.
During the Summer Months and on Special Sundays during the year,
we worship together as a combined church family at 9:30 a.m.
These services weave together traditional hymns, choral anthems, and modern worship music in praise of our God.
As one worshipping community, we unite our hearts and minds
in the study and worship of our one God.
