Spent a while looking for a Christ-Centered, expository preaching church while on vacation and…read morecould not find one in my area so I drove an hour to Bangor and really enjoyed my time visiting this congregation. Wonderful singing and expounding of God's Word. Friendly and vibrant. Multigenerational. Will visit again next time I'm back in Maine.

There are lots of new people so if you just want to stop in and give us a try you won't stick out because you're new.

The pastor (priest) Laura, has a beautiful singing voice which adds greatly to the worship time. The worship area is gorgeous! I very much wish I lived closer so I could attend each Sunday.
