Welcome to the Cuttyhunk Church and Meeting House!
The church is open on a seasonal basis during July and August. It is truly interfaith, with an Episcopal Eucharist at 8:30 a.m. and a Roman Catholic service at 9:30 a.m. A popular hymn sing begins the Sunday evening vespers at 7:45 p.m. followed by an 8:00pm Evening Ecumenica.* The pressed tin walls and ceiling add a dimension to the voices of people who love to sing, providing uplifting and inspiring memories. The church bell calls people to gather fifteen minutes before each service and can be heard all over the island.
The church building is used by a variety of religious and community groups including weddings, baptisms, memorial services, AA and Al-Anon, Cuttyhunk Historical Society events, the Cruisers Community Chorus and other island events.
The magnificent quahog mosaics in the front of the sanctuary are by island artist, Manuel Sarmento (1906-1986). They depict the Madonna and St. Francis of Assisi. The brass and driftwood cross on the altar was built by Wally Ketchum.
* If any times have changed for a particular week, those changes will be noted on the board near the walkway to the church.
