1st off, this isn't a 'church' or any of the other options yelp gave me after putting religious…read moreorganization. They call it a 'meetinghouse' so I guess Yelp needs to add another to the list. We, my wife and I, found this place when looking for a place to get married. One of the oh lets call them stipulations, of my family to get married is that it must be in a church. Roman Catholic would be preferred but that wasn't an option for us so we went looking for a Unitarian building to get married in. Our 1st choice didn't work out, you can see my old reviews as to why. This was our 2nd choice. Let me give you a hint, make this your 1st choice! First point of contact was 'Jem' She works in the church's office and responded to my e-mail and we set up a time for my wife and I to see the inside and around the grounds of the church. When we met her and walked around the building my wife and I both loved the serency. Lots of trees and open area's, a cemetery in the back with tombstones dating back to the 1700's. The building was beautiful. When we entered into the building, wow, clean, neat, amazing. They have a balcony as well that goes all around the seating area. The alter is small, but we fit a wedding party of 10+ up there comfortably without looking cluttered. They also have all the religious symbols on the alter, a Cross, Star of David, Crescent Moon, Buddhist, Hindu, and others I didn't even recognize. The pews were old fashion, box style, with the wall in the middle so you can't slide all the way from one end to the other. you can fit 4 to 6 in each box, depending on size. There's art work on the walls new red carpeting. Even the clock on the balcony works... so I could see how late my bride was. We went back for a 2nd look with my parents in law to show them around, and Barbara, a member of the parish, escorted us and answered any questions we had and even made mention of a room up on the balcony where the bride can hide before the service begins. The dress rehearsal was great too again Barbara was the one who opened the meetinghouse for us. Then finally the day of the wedding was beautiful. Add in all the foliage in the area, and trees of yellow and reds to help make ours pictures even better. The only issues, there is not that much parking around the building, there is some, but the main parking lot is at the end of the road requiring a bit of walking, not even a tenth of a mile, but for older guest this may be an issue. But then again you can reserve the spaces in the back of the church. Also we did originally try to contact the parish's reverend to perform the service however she was not contractible when we were looking for a minister. However this is not a requirement to get married at this meetinghouse. The last thing is there is no plumbing in the meetinghouse, that means no restroom. Those are located next door at the parish hall which is a nice sized building as well located right on the property which can be used for receptions if you're looking to save a few bucks.

Last year, my wife and I went on a serious local church search, partly because we want to have a regular place to worship and be involved, but to be completely honest, even more important to us, we wanted our yet unborn son to grow up with strong Christian influence and a youth program. We tried about five churches in Hudson and Marlborough, then based on a relative's recommendation, drove a bit further and tried Grace Baptist in Shrewsbury. We wanted a multicultural environment, especially for our son and we had a hard time feeling really comfortable anywhere until we visited Grace Baptist for the first time. I appreciated the traditional worship. Although it is a mix between praise songs led by a worship team and traditional hymns, it still has a reverent vibe that I appreciate. The pastor's wife, Monica sings with the worship team that is lead by Jonathan, a young man with a great voice. Usually, before individual song selections are announced, Jonathan will quote a Bible passage relating to the song's message. As a special treat, another John plays the euphonium, a mellow brass instrument that sounds a lot to me like the trombone. The church has an excellent regular pianist that plays on an electronic keyboard with a decent simulated piano sound. Her solos during the offering are often quite moving. Pastor Conway Campbell and his wife are originally from Jamaica. Their two boys are both starting to participate in the worship and are seemingly very musically inclined. One sometimes subs in on the piano and one plays drums via an iPad. Their daughter, along with most of the children, sing in an ensemble for special music programs. We hope someday our son can be a part of this, but for now he is only 4 months old. The church seems to have thriving youth program called Awana. The pastor is a warm, gentle man that preaches directly from the Bible. After every sermon, he invites anyone who may be inclined to invite Jesus into their hearts. I have seen this done from time to time in church, but never every week. To me, this clarifies the pastor's intentions. He wants people to be saved. He has been exceptionally welcoming to my wife and I, and even visited our newborn son at our house a few days after he was born. We missed his hospital visit because my wife and baby were discharged early. The church has Sunday School, morning service, evening service, and different youth and adult programs throughout the week. Our son has been well taken care of in the nursery by one of three different caring people that rotate every week. One woman, Jean, knitted him a beautiful winter outfit complete with hat. A personal highlight to me has been the 4 times that different people have become official church members during different Sunday morning services. The candidates share their testimony in front of the church body and each time has been moving. I hope I've touched on some of the different aspects of the church that you may have wondered about.
