Staff & Leadership

Saint John's is a partner church in a shared ministry covenant with Saint Mark's UCC, Cressona. We are currently in the search process for a new pastor to serve both independent congregations. The Shared Ministry Team, made up of members from both churches, oversees and administers this covenantal relationship.
