Carrabassett Valley – High up on Sugarloaf Mountain, an outdoor Amphitheater nicknamed The AMP, will be the site of summer worship services conducted by Sugarloaf Christian Ministry. The AMP is located just West of the top of the Super Quad chair lift and has stunning views, benches for participants, a platform for leaders, and a fantastic sound system. These interdenominational services will utilize the outdoors, be informal, and kid friendly. The Rev. Earle Morse exclaims, “After a two-year hiatus we are delighted to get back on the hill. Sugarloaf and the Ministry have partnered to bring this community resource to life. We are thrilled to be offering these community worship services in God’s great outdoor sanctuary!”

Summer services will be held each Sunday* from July 3rd through September 4th at 11AM. Attendees should load the Super Quad lift by 10:30AM for the 15-minute ride up to the AMP. The trail from the top of the lift to the AMP is a readily navigable 2-minute walk. Tickets for the lift ride are obtained from the rental shop on the top floor of the base lodge in the Sugarloaf Base Area. Ask for the “Worship Ticket” and receive a discounted round-trip ticket ($7). Sunscreen and a warm jacket are recommended. People are always surprised to find how much colder it is up on the mountain than down in the parking lot!

Bring your lunch it you want to join others for a mountain picnic following the service. If weather prohibits an on-mountain gathering, a service will be held at 11AM in the Richard Bell Chapel located in the base area of Sugarloaf. For more information call Sugarloaf Christian Ministry at 207-237-2304.

* On July 17th there will be an additional 9am service inside at the Chapel. On August 21st there will be no AMP service, only a 9am Chapel Service.

Life looks different from The AMP!!
