Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Come to Sunday worship at 10 am or Thursday Midweek Manna at 7 pm at 3751 Island Avenue, or call 215-873-1230 or send a note through the Contact Us form first..

You can just show up.

What to expect

A Sunday visit starts with worship at 10 am. Children stay for the first part with their parents, then go to a Bible class during the message, and youth have their own class at the same time. Thursday Midweek Manna is a prayer and Bible study at 7 pm. The site does not say how long the service runs or what to wear.

Tips for your first visit

  • Children join the first part of Sunday worship, then leave for their class during the message.
  • The site lists no office hours, so call 215-873-1230 or use the Contact Us form to ask about visiting first.
  • A Get directions link is on the site, but no parking or transit notes are given.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: The site says its doors are always open and gives clear service times and a phone line, but it does not describe a newcomer welcome or program..
