Sanctuary Worship
2025-11-23 10:00, 2025-11-16 10:00 | Meetinghouse Sanctuary, 34 West Main Street, Mildford, CT, 06460, United States
Sanctuary Worship is the heart of Sunday life at First UCC of Milford. Held in the historic Meetinghouse, this service brings our congregation together in a joyful blend of scripture, prayer, preaching, and music led by our choirs.
Children are welcomed with a special message before heading to Sunday School during the school year, and nursery care is available for infants and toddlers. The service often includes baptisms, mission presentations, and celebrations of the Lord’s Supper on the first Sunday of the month.
Following worship, everyone is invited to Coffee Hour in Fellowship Hall, where friendships are formed and the life of the church continues in conversation and community.
Whether you are a lifelong churchgoer or exploring faith for the first time, Sanctuary Worship offers a place to experience God’s love and find belonging.

Grief Support Group

Grief touches every life, and while no two journeys are the same, none of us are meant to walk that road alone. First UCC Milford’s Grief Support Group, led by Kelsey DeCarlo, Minister of Faith Formation, offers a compassionate space to share, listen, and find strength together.
Open to all adults (18 and older), this group is not a counseling session but a community of mutual care and understanding. Whether you are mourning the loss of a loved one, grieving a relationship, or facing a significant life change, you are welcome here. Together, we make room for both sorrow and hope — trusting that healing begins when we can speak our stories and hold one another in love.
