The Brick Church at Clarendon
Building Up God's People!

 


Welcome to The Brick Church Online!

The Brick Church is nestled in the Green Mountains of North Clarendon, Vermont  which borders Rutland on the south. 

The building may be old but the Spirit of God is still alive and well at The Brick Church. Each Sunday we gather for a time of celebration, with contemporary yet authentic praise and worship and relevant preaching. We seek to honor God as we Build-up His people. We promote participation of all through singing, giving, sharing encouraging words of testimony as well as supporting one another through a time of prayer. 

The Brick Church was built in early 1800's and is an historic site in the State of Vermont. If you are visiting the Rutland area or have lived here all your life and would like to visit a little history and experience The Risen Savior then consider yourself invited.

 

We would love to meet you! Following our Sunday Morning Service we share in a time of fellowship around coffee  and snacks. 

Feel free to browse our website to see what we have going on, for service times and/or directions.

Daily Manna from the Net [NIV]

Daily Manna from the Net for Thursday, December 31, 2009 [Mark 2:7-12]
'Why does this fellow talk like that? He's blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?' Immediately Jesus knew in his spirit that this was what they were thinking in their hearts, and he said to them, 'Why are you thinking these things? Which is easier: to say to the paralytic, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Get up, take your mat and walk'? But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins . . . .' He said to the paralytic, 'I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.' He got up, took his mat and walked out in full view of them all. This amazed everyone and they praised God, saying, 'We have never seen anything like this!' Mark 2:7-12 NIV Listen
