This is a great church! The congregation is friendly, the pastors are kind and make a real effort to get to know you. And the sanctuary is just beautiful -- no -- stunning! It's also a great place for families. They devote a lot of time and effort to nurturing children. There's two services. There's a traditional service at 10:30, with choral music and a fabulous organ. There's a more relaxed, intimate service at 8:30. Highly recommend it.

Our family loves this church. The pastors are outstanding, and the congregation is very friendly. They have an exceptional music program and many activities for children. We joined when our kids were 8 and 10. Only wish we had joined sooner!

This congregation is fantastic - we had been coming to Christmas and Easter here for many years. Their Christmas Eve children's service is really beyond compare - they have costumes for every child that shows up, they provide bells for every child and encourage their use throughout the service. Recently we started attending on a more regular basis and have decided to join. Their pastor, Pastor David, is really unbelievable - was a corporate lawyer, worked on the Hill and has been the pastor here since around 2010. Important for us is their children's programs - our two young boys love Sunday school here (apparently they have a full time pre-K program). Pastor David has 4 young children of his own, so they are very oriented toward young families. Generally, they have tons of different outlets and ministries, so it seems like you could find a way to engage with the community regardless of your interests - yoga, ecology, sports, service, music, etc. From a faith perspective, I would say they are a very tolerant community and acknowledge there are many different paths to spirituality. They encourage questions and dialogue. They actually share space with Jewish congregation and are building relationships with the Muslim community. I have spoken with few folks who landed on Bradley Hills after another prominent local Presbyterian church took a position to not condone same sex marriages. The other aspect that seems very important here is the education and democratizing the context for the bible - they put lay people on the same footing as the clergy, which was appealing to us. They have not been pushy at all - would characterize them as warmly engaging. Such a personal decision, but I would say this is definitely a church to consider if you are looking.
