Worship Services
​
-
Sunday Worship is "relaxed traditional" and includes hymns, scripture readings, and teaching based on the Revised Common Lectionary. The hour long service is held in our spacious Sanctuary. Holy Communion is celebrated the first Sunday of each month and on liturgically significant days.
-
Combined Mid-Week Services are held each Wednesday during Lent alternating between St. John's and St. Mark's UCC, Cressona. The informal 40-minute service includes singing, prayers, and a brief message.
-
The Mite Family Room is located at the rear of the Sanctuary for those with young children or anyone having difficulty sitting for an extended period of time.
-
Online Services are available through our website, Facebook page, and YouTube for those who prefer to worship virtually.
