PARKING - A small parking lot is located next to the church and can be accessed from River Street, which runs behind the church building. Ample on-street parking can also be found on East Main Street and Dock Street. Parking is also available in both Sovereign Bank and M&T Bank parking lots (Sunday mornings only).
-
ENTERING THE CHURCH - You may use either entrance doors on the front of the building. Once inside, you will find a friendly greeter who will direct you to the Sanctuary, which is located on Level Two (or the Chapel on Level One if our service is being held there). If you need the elevator, they will assist you. Restrooms are located on the Ground Level.
-
ENTERING THE SANCTUARY/CHAPEL - An usher will give you a worship bulletin to guide you through the service. Children's activity bags are also available. Offering plates are located on a stand inside each Sanctuary entrance (or just outside the Chapel).
-
DURING THE SERVICE - Please be mindful that the service is being recorded for those who are viewing online. If we are celebrating the Sacrament of Holy Communion, the elements (bread and wine/juice) will be distributed by the ushers. The Mite Family Room is available in the rear of the Sanctuary for those who have difficulty sitting for longer periods of time.
-
LEAVING THE SANCTUARY/CHAPEL - At the end of the service, you may spend a few moments in prayerful reflection during the postlude music or exit using either of the stairwells. If you need the elevator, an usher will assist you.

FROM THE
CONSISTORY PRESIDENT
March 2026
"For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son,
so that everyone who believes in him may not perish
but may have eternal life. Indeed, God did not send his Son
into the world to condemn the world but
in order that the world might be saved through him."
~ John 3: 16-17
The season of Lent is upon us. Throughout the month of March, there are several opportunities for you to be a part of this reflective time as we prepare for Holy Week and Easter.
The Sacrament of Holy Communion will be celebrated on Sunday, March 01 with Rev. Mark Dewald leading worship.
Each Wednesday evening, we gather at Saint Mark's Church beginning at 5:00PM for a soup supper followed by the Lenten Service at 6:30PM. Thank you to Saint Mark's for hosting this year's Lenten services.
On Sunday, March 22 at 10:30AM, the combined choirs of Saint John's and Saint Mark's will present the cantata "THE CROSS" by Robert Lau. There will be no 9:00AM service at Saint John's that day.
Our Palm Sunday will be observed on Sunday, March 29 beginning with Worship at 9:00AM followed by our annual Palm Sunday Brunch prepared by the men of the church.
You are also invited to take a grocery bag and fill it with non-perishable food items as part of our "40 Days of Caring" collection for the Schuylkill Haven Food Pantry. Please return your filled bag to the church on Easter Sunday.
May this season be a time of reflection and renewal for you and your family,
Timothy Gipe
Consistory President
