Our mission is to serve God through worship, stewardship and outreach.
Whether you are a first time visitor, longtime member, friend or family, we welcome you to this historic church. Here we sing, read, pray, listen, and break bread in thanksgiving and praise to God whose love brings new life. Here people of all ages find many opportunities for growth in spirit, heart, mind and body through worship, learning and service. Emmanuel is honored to host the annual High Holy Days services of the Chestertown Havurah. Their services are listed in the upcoming events box below. Emmanuel is handicapped-accessible (automatically-opening doors are located on the east side of the building, and handicap parking is available on Memorial Plaza). Listening devices are provided for those with hearing needs. Ushers will be happy to provide headsets and instructions—please ask. |
