Our 2026 Stewardship Campaign is now underway!
 
 
Our theme this year—Creating Hope Together—speaks to the vital role our congregation plays in creating hope in us, in our neighbors, and farther afield. Community Church is a beacon for those seeking hope. As many congregations have dwindled or embraced values at odds with Jesus’s teachings, we are intent on creating a beloved community where everyone is welcomed and valued—where hope is alive and growing.
 


 
 
Blessings and Peace!
 
If you’ve found the site today, I imagine that you’re curious about spiritual community–and what it offers us, here and now, in today’s world of wonder and uncertainty.
 
Look around.  Explore our values, our vision, our programs.  And know that your curiosity itself is a God-gift: a gift to be treasured, pursued and enjoyed.  Maybe you’re new to Durham, UNH or the Seacoast itself.  Check out out a service, a program, a class we’re offering. See if your spirit’s lifted in some way by the community of friends you find here.
 
The best way to know what we believe is to see how we do what we do! Church isn’t just a building: it’s a movement.  As the Community Church of Durham, we’re creating a movement of many generations, many voices and many gifted souls.  It’s a lot of fun, it’s a circle of wonder; and it’s a movement for the blessing of all life.
 
If you’ve got any questions, I’m always eager to talk!  Wherever you are on life’s journey, you’re welcome among us at the Community Church.
