We will meet for 2 weeks at the Westbrook-Warren building (810 Main Street, Westbrook, ME 04092) and then 3 weeks at the Windham Hill building (140 Windham Center Road, Windham, ME 04062). Pastors Leslie Foley and Sharon Rankin will be swapping off on leading worship -- and Paul Stickney will be providing music for all 5 weeks.
Please join us -- either in person or online! See the schedule below -- with links to maps and live stream sites.
Donations for Ukrainian relief
There are many ways to donate money to the relief of Ukraine. Here are just a couple of suggestions through the United Church of Christ, our national denomination:
Ukraine Emergency Appeal: Use this link to get info on donating. From their website: Gifts made to UCC Ukraine Relief Fund will provide shelter, food, and other care to war refugees and internally displaced people. It also will help refugees and asylum seekers from African, Middle Eastern and other countries who had sought refugee in Ukraine and now are twice displaced, as well as citizens of more than 125 other countries living in Ukraine.
Our annual One Great Hour of Sharing (OGHS) collection: We collect annually for this mission that provides money, in part, for disaster relief & refugees -- including Ukraine. We will be dedicating our OGHS gifts on March 27, but you can donate anytime here online! From the UCC website: This Lenten Offering supports the disaster, refugee, and development ministries of the United Church of Christ within Wider Church Ministries.

Pledge Your Support
Both members and non-members can make a pledge to the church, which is a statement of how much you anticipate giving to the church over the course of the year.
A pledge is a commitment to give, and the church uses these pledges to plan and make its budget. At the same time we recognize that situations change and that people may need to adjust their pledge during the year.
Of course, you can give without making a pledge!
Welcome!
Are you looking for a place to belong, a place where you are loved and accepted for who you are?
Do you need someone to talk to without judgment, someone who will walk with you as you seek to understand God’s purpose for your life?
Do you want a safe place to worship and serve others?
You are welcome here at WWCC!
