Special Musical Guests

At both of our services, we will celebrate Reformation Sunday with musical guests, the Chesapeake Caledonian Bagpipe Band, Brass Quintet, and Percussion.


The Chesapeake Caledonian Bagpipe Band was formed in 1985 to promote the highest standards in both traditional and contemporary bagpipe and drum ensemble performance. Since then, the band has regularly participated in parades, concerts, and pipe band competitions throughout the Mid-Atlantic region.

Inside the Belhar Confession

As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Belhar Confession, you are invited to a special Lunch and Learn, led by Pastor JC on Reformation Sunday, October 25, 12:30–1:30PM, in Room 208 and on Zoom. Learn more about the history and meaning of this Confession in the wake of Apartheid in South Africa, and why the PC(USA) voted to adopt it into our Book of Confessions years later. The Children’s Formation Committee will provide a special Worship Education Program for children during this time frame.

New Adult Education Class: Genesis

A Beginner's Guide to the Beginning

Join us for a Adult Education class on Sundays through October 25, 11AM! The class will center on Genesis: A Beginner’s Guide to the Beginning and meet in the Conference Room and on Zoom.

Everyone is Welcome to Worship at Woods

Sometimes little ears are sensory sensitive. Therefore, the Children’s Ministry has noise dampening headphones available on Sunday mornings. See Kat or Lindsey to sign out a set of headphones. Return them after the service. The headphones are cleaned after each use and ear guards will be changed.


This is one way that Woods Church works to be inclusive of all from the tall to the small!


See You in Church!
