There are many things we are thankful for at our beloved Chapel. The board of trustees works diligently to oversee the chapel's operations, finances, and mission. Our committees are thoughtful in managing our finances, the maintenance of our beautiful grounds and columbarium areas, buildings and preservation, communications, events, hospitality, and pastoral support.
Nantucket food pantry bags will be available in the Chapel every Sunday during the season.
Please take one, fill it up with the suggested items on the list in the pocket of the bag, bring it back on Sunday or drop it off on porch of Amen.
At Siasconset Union Chapel, we welcome all who seek spiritual connection, community, and renewal.

The Chapel is a special and highly sought after place for an island wedding.
Choosing it for your marriage ceremony brings your family and friends into our Christian community. To learn more about the practice and policies concerning marriage and eligibility, please visit our website, sconsetchapel.org/sacraments.
We encourage Chapel worshippers, their families, year round and seasonal Nantucket residents and property owners, as well as frequent visitors to the island to reserve the Chapel at least eight months ahead of the brief June to October season in which they wish to marry. The fee for a wedding generates funds for building and garden maintenance.
Brides and grooms wishing further information should first review the website (above), then contact Mary Will, Chapel Reservationist at marylathropwill@gmail.com with questions about availability and assistance concerning steps forward.
Everyone anticipates the Sconset Chapel beach services. Especially the dogs who greet each other! Children enjoy the freedom to play in the sand while their parents listen to the waves break as the background for Rev Carr Holland’s message. Beach services will be held on July 6 and 20, August 3 and 17 and September 7. The services on July 20 and August 17th will include Blessing of the Animals.
