Directions
As you enter our "old brick church" in Pottstown's historic district, you'll be greeted and welcomed into our worship of God. The weekly bulletin will guide you through the service which includes:
  • Greetings, announcements, responsive readings, and prayer.
  • Music: The service integrates varied and inspiring music including traditional and newer hymns; organ, piano, and instrumental music; as well as musical selections from our choir.
  • A sermon by our pastor, Rev. Linda Higgins that applies scripture to our everyday lives.
  • Fellowship among parishioners with a genuine warmth and friendliness.
In addition to our regular Sunday worship, special services during the year include:

Holy Communion is celebrated on Maundy Thursday, Easter, Pentecost (Confirmation Sunday), Summer Communion (date varies), World Wide Communion Sunday (October), and the First Sunday in Advent.

Special Worship Services

If you prefer a more contemporary service, our contemporary worship group leads a service at 9:00 a.m. in Fellowship Hall in the Chapel Building on Chestnut Street. This is a come-as-you-are service, and save room for the homebaked goodies and coffee on the table as you enter.
