On this September 11th, we hold close the words of Jesus:

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you…”

In a world that can feel uncertain and troubled, may we remember the power of peace, compassion, courage, and faith.

Today, we remember those we lost, those who served, and the families and communities forever changed.

May we carry their memory with us—and may we choose peace whenever we can.

🕊️🇺🇸

09/11/2026

Today, we pause to remember September 11, 2001.

We remember the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the countless heroes who ran toward danger to help others.

We remember the courage, compassion, and extraordinary acts of service that emerged from an unimaginable day.

May we never forget. 🇺🇸

🍦 THIS SUNDAY: SUNDAE SUNDAY + BLESSING OF THE BACKPACKS! 🎒
Congregational Church in Killingworth, UCC

What better way to start a new school year than with a little encouragement, a few positive blessings, and a whole lot of community?

Join us this Sunday at The Congregational Church in Killingworth, UCC, as we welcome Guest Minister Rev. Dennis Tebeest for a special service featuring our Blessing of the Backpacks.

Bring your backpack, your kids, your grandkids — or simply come and share in the moment. Whether it’s a new school year, a new chapter, or simply a fresh start, we could all use a little extra encouragement and blessing along the way.

And then… ICE CREAM! 🍦

Stay after worship for Sundae Sunday and enjoy a sweet treat while connecting with friends and neighbors.

You’ll also have a chance to meet our CE Director, Christine Link, and learn more about the wonderful programs, educational opportunities, and mission projects happening here at The Congregational Church in Killingworth, UCC.

Come for the blessing. Stay for the sundaes. Discover all the ways you can be part of our community.

Community is at the heart of what we’re creating at The Congregational Church in Killingworth, UCC. 💙

Our Fall Learning Series is already underway, and it has been wonderful to see people gathering, learning, laughing, and simply enjoying being together.

Yesterday, Yoga for Anxiety with Cynthia Sarris got us off to a beautiful start. Everyone left feeling relaxed and refreshed — and there’s still plenty of room if you’d like to join us!

Today, Mahjong with Sandy Allard kicked off with a SOLD OUT class. We’re so excited to see this program grow!

And next Monday, September 14 at 10:00 AM, we’re opening our doors for Monday Morning Coffee Hour, sponsored by the KWO Senior Connections.

Need a place to get out of the heat? Want to enjoy a cup of coffee, have a conversation with a friend, or meet someone new? Come on in. You don’t need to be a church member. You don’t need a reason. Just come as you are. Our Parish Hall is a place for our whole community.

And we’re already looking ahead to spring!

Do you have a class, workshop, skill, hobby, or unique idea that you’d love to share with the community? We’re currently looking for instructors and ideas for our Spring Learning Series.

We believe our church can be more than a place we gather on Sunday. It can be a place to CONNECT, LEARN, GROW, and BELONG — together.

If you have an idea for a spring class, we’d love to hear from you!

The Congregational Church in Killingworth, UCC
A place for community. A place for connection. A place for you.
