Welcome to United Christian Church 
Lincolnville Center, Maine




Taizé Services

Held occasionally, these services include instrumental music, singing meditation, selected readings, and silent prayer. The service is approximately 40 minutes. Musicians come to us from a number of different churches in the area, and we are often joined by people from the surrounding communities who love the Taizé music. Watch the Church Calendar for the dates of future services at our church and others.
