Boston: lively church for Easter Sunday service?
 

We will be in Boston for the Easter weekend and would love to go to church on Easter Sunday. Back home here in the UK we worship in a fairly lively non-denominational Christian fellowship, however, any Boston church recommendations would be very welcome. Thank you.

The Beautiful Trinity Church in Copley Square that is Episcopopalian.
Near by on the Corner of Arlington st. is the Arlington Street church. I think it's unitarian but it is a very liberal church wityh interesting speakers and events.

Eliot Church (United Church of Christ/Congregational)on Dale Street in Roxbury (part of Boston) is incredibly lively. The church (as is Roxbury) is primarily African-American/Black but all are welcome. I live north of Boston in a very White community, and we often take groups of teenagers to this church so they can experience a different type of church service.

A lot of singing, often gospel type, many older women with beautiful hats, and the warmest people you have ever met. More people speak to us at coffee hour after service there than at our own home church.

Forget Trinity, it will be absolutely packed. It's worth visiting for the architectural experience, but not that weekend.

I agree with gail, almost any Baptist church will guarantee you a lively, uniquely American religious and musical experience not just on Easter but any Sunday.

Sorry I'm a day late and a dollar short for this post, but just now ran across it. So, for any looking for Easter worship services for NEXT year, I recommend Park Street Church (congregational). We go to Boston each year for the marathon, which occasionally corresponds with Easter weekend. We've worshipped at a Presbyterian church in Newton, which was nice, but feel at home at Park Street. As we generally stay near the Boston Common, it's also very accessible.
