Charles River Church

"An amazing place, I was really welcomed and I’m glad to visit this church!"

"A few years ago, I approached a tough roadblock in life that caused me to sought out God and reconnect with my long abandoned faith. As an androgynous lesbian, it’s hard to find a church that won’t judge me. After sitting in multiple worships and different churches, I found this one. At the time it was just Sunday worship in a Middle school in West Roxbury. Not only was worship held in a middle school auditorium, without glorious Christian decor, but no one dressed in their Sunday best. The longer I sat in that worship the more I realized this church accepts all, just like how God accepts all, no matter where you are, what you’re dressed… he accept you for who you are. Now the worship that first day, somehow I felt like it was drafted for me. Every word of the sermon and hymn sang, was exactly what I needed to hear. I cried the 75% of the worship. It’s been 4 years, they finally found an appropriate church building. Still minimalistic, but that’s how it should be. Glad I’m still a member here."

"We moved to Boston from the UK a year ago. We received a wonderful welcome at CRC and immediately felt it was a church family we could be part of. We enjoy the heart felt worship and bible centered teaching. The youth and children‘s ministries have also been a huge blessing."

"I have been attending CRC for the past couple weeks and have absolutely LOVED every second of it!! Kevin and Josh have answered every single one of my questions, and there’s been a lot of them, in great detail. The leaders of CRC pour themselves into both guests and members and focus on discipleship-making. Everyone is so kind and caring and looks after each other!! I’d highly recommend Charles River to anyone looking for a new church home!"

"My family and I started attending CRC last year during their outdoor services and never left. This church is filled with friendly people who are real and willing to share the ugly stuff about who they are, which gives me the freedom to do the same. It's a very caring and supportive community. It is diverse, with solid biblical teaching, lively heart-felt worship, a strong focus on serving others, and lots of opportunities for people of all ages to connect outside of church. If you're looking for a church in Boston, I highly recommend you check this one out."
