Why a website?

The purpose of Beacon Hill Evangelical Free Church (and this website) is to proclaim and live the Gospel of Jesus Christ in a way that will impact our surrounding community and the world, to the glory of God.  God is great, and greatly to be praised!

Perhaps you are reading this and you do not yet know Jesus Christ.  Perhaps you wonder about the meaning and purpose of your life.  We do not claim to have all the answers, but we know the One who does!  Jesus Christ is the answer to life’s most perplexing questions, and we invite you to take your time and explore this site...discover who we are, what we believe, and (most importantly) what meeting the Savior can mean to your life!

Worship services

Our Sunday Worship Services are held each Sunday during the Fall-Spring seasons at 8:30 and 11:00am.  During the summer, our Sunday services are at 8:30 and 10:15am.  In true New England fashion, there have been only two cancellations of services in the 30-year history of Beacon Hill Church...let it be 30 more years before the next!  Click here for a more detailed description of our services and a schedule of the "goings on going on!"

A quick explanation...

We are an Evangelical Free Church.  What does that mean?

We're "evangelical,"  which means that we are committed to the proclamation of the Gospel.  Further, we believe that the Scriptures are the inspired Word of God, inerrant in their original writings...the complete revelation of His will and the final authority for the conduct of a Christian life.

We're "free," which indicates that our church is autonomous, and expresses the idea that our local church membership takes an active role in choosing the directions we take and the decisions we make.  In other words, our organizational structure is congregational, not hierarchal in nature.

And we are a "church," a gathering of believers in our Savior Jesus Christ who meet together to worship, support each other in the faith, and strive to do our part in the Great Commission. 

The Evangelical Free Church of America is an association of almost 1,450 distinct churches dedicated to the service of our Lord Jesus Christ with the guidance of the Holy Spirit and obedience to the Word of God.  Each Evangelical Free Church is united with the others in their commitment to the principles of fellowship and cooperation in ministry as we seek to fulfill the Great Commission which Christ has entrusted to His church.  Please visit the websites of the EFCA National Office and our New England District Office for more information!

Cyber vs. reality: no comparison

Although we welcome and encourage your fellowship through this website, we also believe that no internet correspondence can take the place of shoulder to shoulder Christian fellowship. If you do not already have a home church, we urge you to find one, and to participate in the fellowship of a small (or "cell") group. There is no better way to "jumpstart" your growth in the Lord than to join with a group of mutually supporting peers.
