Union is a Christ-focused ministry that strengthens marriages and creates community among Park Street Church’s many young married and engaged couples through fellowship, learning and service events. Union encourages the fostering of close relationships through small groups, as well as the development of new friendships through large group events or combined small group activities.
SMALL GROUPS
The Union ministry is affiliated with more than 15 married and engaged couples' small groups that have a combined membership of more than 100 people. The small groups meet weekly on various days and in various locations in and around Boston, with members ranging in age from their early 20s to their mid 30s, including some with children. • If you are looking for a couples' small group Bible study to join, there are usually
groups with openings. • If you have space in your couples' small group or are looking to form a new couples'
small group, we regularly hear from couples looking for a small group to join.
If you are a young married or engaged couple that is new to the Boston area, contact us at unionsmallgroups[at]parkstreet.org. After you email us, we will follow-up to officially welcome you to the area, answer your questions about Boston, and help get you plugged into the church!
EVENTS AND ACTIVITIES
We are a group of couples that love to have fun, meet new people and learn more about our faith together. Various types of social, learning and service events, designed with couples in mind, are held approximately monthly. Future events are always under development and are listed below, in the church bulletin and within the Union email newsletter. Past events (see related pics) have included: Sundaes on Sunday, Couples Challenge (a fun variation of the Newlywed Game), marriage discussion panels, a progressive dinner, bowling, and volunteering at a Walk for Hunger water station.
