Holiday Candlelight Service in Beacon’s Sanctuary.

WORSHIP

Our Sunday Services invite people of diverse spiritual backgrounds and orientations, as well as those questioning, to center our lives and find a deeper sense of meaning. Our worship services are led by our ministers, volunteer worship associates and chaplains, and music and lifespan ministries staff, featuring song and music, centering and meditation, candle lighting ritual, offering and sermon.

When and where do Beacon’s worship services happen?

Services are held every Sunday at 9:30 AM and 11 AM at 4 Waldron Avenue and streamed live on YouTube. Find the Order of Service on our website.

From Memorial Day through Labor Day, Beacon has a single 10 AM service.

What are your safety protocols for COVID-19?

Beacon prioritizes health and safety when planning our services and events. To that end, our Safety Team is regularly monitoring a combination of factors (COVID-19 vaccinations, positive cases, hospitalization and mortality rates). We are also committed to following national and NJ state guidelines.

You can help us maintain in-person services and events by following these guidelines.

  1. Self-Assessment: If you are experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms (fever, chills, loss of taste or smell, muscle pain, difficulty breathing, sore throat) and/or if you’ve been in contact with anyone with COVID-19, please stay home and join our virtual services.

  2. Masks: We ask that all participants be masked while at Beacon services and events. We are happy to provide masks at our Welcome Table if you should forget yours.

  3. Vaccinations: We expect that participants eligible for the vaccine will be fully vaccinated. We understand that participants with health issues may choose not to be vaccinated; that’s one of the primary reasons we’ve maintained our virtual services.

  4. Social Distancing: We are maintaining 50% capacity in our sanctuary for large gatherings.

  5. Air Purification & Hand Sanitizing: We’ve upgraded air filtration in our HVAC units throughout our building to maximize safety. Hand sanitizing stations are located throughout our building.
