Who we are
Burton Community Church invites everyone seeking "inspiration not indoctrination!"
Burton Community Church is a Christian fellowship joining thoughtful individuals from diverse faiths together in spiritual community. Inspired by the piano and choir-direction of local talent Maggie Laird, hymns and "special musical appearances" offer an uplifting experience within our historic and beautifully simple sanctuary. A Children's Story is shared during the service. After prayer, song and reflection, we gather for coffee, light snacks and great conversations following the service.
Burton Community Church is also pleased to share our space and meeting hall with the Vashon Island Unitarian Fellowship.
We are wheelchair-accessible and parking is on Vashon highway or behind the Church at Lewis Hall.

Burton Community Church History
Our History
The Burton Community Church's doors opened in 1897 after a group of individual's led by Reverend S.W. Beavens. The church was built on land aquired by a land grant in 1897. The church was then known as the First Baptist Church of Burton.
Many of the early BCC ministers were missionaries, serving in China and Burma.
In 1907, a church parsonage was built west of the church. By 1923, the North and West rooms of the church were added along with the basement and two Norway Spruce.
In 1928, the church was reorganized and renamed to more accurately reflect the diverse religious backgrounds of its members. It was then named Burton Community Church.
In 1956, Lewis Hall was built. It was named after Alfred John Lewis who was a member of the church.
In 1963, a new parsonage north of Burton was built.
A great celebration was held in 1997 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of this church. It is the oldest church building on Vashon Island used continuously as a place of worship.
BCC has had a total of 29 ministers. Reverend Marcus Walker was our pastor from 1995 to March 2011. Rev Marilyn Marston shares a story from the bible every first Sunday of the month. Other Sundays are filled with guest ministers or lay led services that include messages, music, poetry and scripture discussion.
