A Quiet Way
May God’s grace accompany you as you journey along A Quiet Way.
A Quiet Way is a peaceful path designed with accessible seating for rest and reflection around the perimeter of the Birmingham First building at 1589 West Maple Rd., Birmingham, MI. We invite you to take this walk, set aside a moment to relax, breathe, gather your thoughts, and connect with God. Our church has been a steadfast presence in this community since 1821. When our founders first gathered to worship in Willetts Tavern, they could not have imagined that 200+ years later, we would still be here in Birmingham, gathered here for good.
A Quiet Way was created to offer a serene space for you to find respite from life’s challenges. Click the button below to open a printable map and brochure of A Quiet Way.
