Most Sundays we celebrate Holy Communion with our priest-in-charge.
Once each month we have Morning Prayer instead, led by church members who remind us you don't need to be ordained to serve God.
And every week, our worship is characterized by jazz - both jazz music and the spirit of jazz!
​
There is Sunday School for children ages 3-8, also at 10:30 AM.
Children leave the sanctuary together at the start of the service, and return for Communion.

After church, we gather for Coffee and Community, loving one another with our fellowship just as we love God with our worship.
​

​In the fall, Adult Formation conversations frequently follow church and community hour, covering spiritual topics like Christian resistance to fascism, faith in the workplace, the day's Scripture readings, and more.

Everyone was created in God's image, and all are welcomed, wanted, and affirmed. You are already one of us.
There is no formal dress code. Most could be described as casual or business casual, but you'll see t-shirts too.
 Come exactly as you are  - just come a little early if you need to find neighborhood parking!

Rent Space at St. PJ's
For Event, Rehearsal, Office, or Kitchen Needs

We are blessed to have, love, and maintain a large and recently renovated building in Wooster Square, the heart of New Haven. And it would be a sin if we let this special space sit empty six days a week, instead of benefitting our neighbors and broader community!

St. PJ's offers event spaces, music rehearsal rooms, offices, kitchens, and meeting rooms at affordable rates. This beautiful building could be perfect for your next party, performance, dance studio, baby shower, book club, catering prep, or non-profit.

(Do you represent an affirming church without its own building that is looking for space to worship each week? Let's talk!)​
