Church List

This is a compilation of churches in the greater Boston area which are currently attended by members of the groups associated with United Christian Organization. This guide is not meant to be an exhaustive listing of Boston area churches. Instead, we hope that this list can be of help to you as you look for a congregation that you can call home while you are here at MIT. Worship services take place on Sunday unless otherwise specified.

A listing in this guide does not constitute an endorsement by UCO. We encourage you to critically and prayerfully examine the doctrine, teachings, and practices of the churches you visit.

We have tried to keep this list as updated and accurate as possible. If you have any corrections for this page, please send them to Dawn Song (sunrise). You may send email to anyone on this list by adding @mit.edu to their usernames unless otherwise indicated.
