Who are we?


People have been drawn from all segments of society to the faithful community of Wellington. Across economic, racial, ethnic, and religious boundaries people have come, drawn by the integrity of the gospel in action. Wellington's members reach out in ministry to places far and near, from Central America to local school councils in their own neighborhood. Wellington is truly a community of care – a community of faith.

Wellington Worship

The style of worship at Wellington is casual and involves liturgists, musicians, and the pastor who are all considered worship leaders.

Liturgy, or liturgia in Greek, literally means "work of the people" – not of the clergy, but of the people. Liturgists are present in the service to help the congregation taste and digest the Word of God for the day. Liturgists add an essential perspective on the lectionary reading for the day and share what they find meaningful and significant about the passages.

Music at Wellington is also a vital part of worship involving soloists, instrumentalists, and choral works. Our music director, Abigail Demirgian, contributes to worship not only by playing at our Sunday services, but also by directing the choir and working with special guest musicians.

The element of art is also an important ingredient in Wellington worship. Resident artist John Volkening has a wide variety of liturgical art which is used in worship throughout the year at Wellington.


Our office administrator is Vince Benabese. You can contact him at the phone numbers or email address in the left column. Members should drop Vince a note if they need to change any contact information in the Church directory.
