Old North Church
About
Old North Church in Marblehead is a United Church of Christ congregation first gathered in 1635 and recognized as Open and Affirming. It describes itself as a “come as you are” church for people of all ages, from longtime churchgoers to those just beginning to explore faith. Its mission centers on sharing the gospel, extending hospitality and caring for those in need, while not letting its long history eclipse its present and future.
Sunday worship takes place in two settings: an early service at the lighthouse in Chandler Hovey Park and a later service in the church’s historic meetinghouse. The sanctuary also hosts concerts, such as a tribute to Dolly Parton presented by Holly Cameron, Charisse Nocera and Leah Waldo, with a free-will offering benefiting the artists. The congregation says everyone is welcome, no matter who they are or where they are on life’s journey.
