I have been a parishioner at Saint Bede since 2004 and though it is a large parish there are many…read morewelcoming individuals and families that make it feel like home. The church is large, accommodating over 1,000 at some points, and seating is in the round with the tabernacle off to the left side when you enter near the fount. It is very beautiful, with many areas of adoration around statues of Mary and Joseph, as well as, paintings of the Divine Mercy and Our Lady of Guadalupe. Additionally, the reservation chapel, where the tabernacle is located is quiet and a wonderful place for prayer and adoration. The music is beautiful with multiple choirs (i.e., children's, Scholara, adult, contemporary), pipe organ, piano, and bells (i.e., adult and children) and supplemented with a guide in the pews to assist you with the music and readings. The priests in the parish are amazingly spiritual and attentive. They are usually in the commons before and after each Mass to greet, pray over, or just to chat with. Confession times are available throughout the week and the atmosphere is always friendly and loving. The Parish has many wonderful service, fellowship, and educational opportunities. The community does wonderful outreach through the Williamsburg House of Mercy, food pantry, and homeless programs. These are located not at the main church, but in downtown Williamsburg and serves many people throughout the region. There are also many opportunities to be involved in fellowship opportunities with other men, women, single-parents, Knights of Columbus, or many other groups that meet weekly to offer you a way to interact with others to grow spiritually in your faith. Furthermore, there are multiple educational opportunities throughout the week in the morning and evening. Overall Saint Bede is a large parish with multiple individuals and families; however, if you want it to be it can be your home away from home.

Everyone was friendly. We're glad we have a welcoming church only a few minutes drive from our weekend accommodations.

If you are visiting Williamsburg and either looking for a UU church or a place of liberal religious…read moreworship, WUU (Williamsburg Unitarian Universalists) is a great place to visit. The church building is simple and light and airy, making for a peaceful place to worship. The congregations ranges from children to retirees and it is a warm and welcoming place.

It is a community that provides a home for all who need a spiritual experience....an emotional as well as an intellectual experience. I love that we have atheist, Hindu, Buddhist, Wiccan, Christian, Jewish, and Muslim members. It is true....we pray...to the spirit of life......and meditate....and sing out the joy in our hearts! The idea that God is anthropomorphic is not an idea one would receive here at WUU. Rather, the word "God" is a metaphor for all that is sacred in the universe. It Is the term used to reflect the awe with which we look to nature, to the stars, to the unknowable depths and intricate complexities of the universe. This denomination has Deist and Christian roots, but members know that our "standing on the side of love" means that we welcome all people....all colors, all ethnic groups, all sexual identities....everybody. They are worthy. They are welcomed. They are fed spiritually in this space. They also have many opportunities to practice social and environmental justice.

Wow, I can review my synagogue? Neat!…read more In case people are actually looking on Yelp for insights on whether to attend religious services when they're visiting Williamsburg, I wholeheartedly recommend Temple Beth El to you. Here are some things you might want to know before you go: -The synagogue is not affiliated with a movement. This is maybe my favorite thing about it, but it is likely not to be exactly what you're used to no matter what movement you're a part of. Certainly, the advantage is that you'll meet Jews of all shapes, sizes, and persuasions here. -Shabbat services: Ma'ariv is 7:30 year-round, Shacharit is 10:00 AM year round, but they only have Shacharit services once a month (usually first Saturday) during summer. -The congregation is small enough that visitors are usually recognized and possibly asked to introduce themselves during the announcements before the conclusion of the service. -Likewise, if you stand for kaddish, you may be asked if you would like to share a memory of your loved one. You should feel free to accept or decline this invitation. To me it's a pretty heartwarming custom, and I very much enjoy hearing others' memories, but we are all very respectful of those in mourning and do not want to make them feel uncomfortable. If anyone has any other questions about Beth El, I was a Sunday school teacher here for a year and spent many more attending services, so please feel free to send me a message.
