Children’s Program

After two incredibly joyful seasons of Children’s Chapel, we are bursting with excitement to embark on our third season. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has contributed to the success of this program. Each gathering has been a testament to God's presence, emphasizing the values of community, love, and kindness. Together, we sing hymns of joy, delve into Christian stories, offer prayers, engage in creative activities, and relish in the warmth of our church family, finding solace in the sense of belonging within our cherished community.

As we eagerly anticipate the upcoming summer, we are eager to expand upon our previous experiences. This season, we aim to delve deeper into the foundational teachings of the Old Testament and further explore the power of prayer. We eagerly anticipate reconnecting with familiar faces and extending a warm welcome to new friends who join us on this journey.

The Children’s Program will coincide with the Chapel service on non-beach service Sundays (July 14, 28; August 11 and 25). Children will commence the Chapel service with their families before coming together during the service to transition to ‘AMEN’. There, they will engage in singing, crafts, storytelling, and community-building activities. Rest assured, while fun is our priority, safety remains paramount.

We are excited to welcome children ages 3-12 and encourage you to register your children and grandchildren by clicking here. Additionally, we hope to enlist teenage volunteers and individuals with musical talents to enrich our program. For those interested in contributing or with any inquiries, please reach out to Chrissi Crampton at chrissicrampton@gmail.com. 

Your participation is invaluable as we strive to cultivate a vibrant and sustainable congregation. We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to gather with you and your families at Chapel this summer!

Behold! Commemorative Book

What started out as a history of the Chapel's tradition of needlepoint kneelers turned into a history of the Chapel and its closely intertwined relationship with the village of 'Sconset. That book, Behold: The Siasconset Union Chapel, was published in 2008 and truly commemorates the chapel's rich history.

The beautiful book, written by Patricia Butler, photographed by Jeffrey Allen and designed by Kathleen Hay, features behind the scenes and amusing stories of chapel life, as well as its history and ministires. In addition, every one of the chapel's gorgeous, handmade kneelers is pictured in all its needlepoint glory. And, the book also features many excellent historic photographs which document the chapel's growth and evolution for much of its 135 years.

The book is for sale at the Chapel on Sundays and the Chapel is open to the public weekdays during the summer from 10 AM-12 PM. Behold is also available at island bookstores.
