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 10:45 am, or call the church office at 215-673-2745 to ask about joining the choir..
You can just show up. No sign up needed.
What to expect
Sunday worship starts at 10:45 am, and children stay in the regular service with some moments made just for them. The pages read do not describe what happens after the service or a first-visit routine. The church office is the best place to ask about the choir, volunteering or recovery groups.
Tips for your first visit
- Bring a non-perishable food donation if you want, and drop it off before or after the service.
- From I-95 south, the directions end with about 2 miles south on Bustleton Avenue, with the church on your right.
- For a choir visit, call the office first, since rehearsal days and times are not published on the site.
Newcomer welcome
Welcoming to newcomers (4 out of 5). Why we say this: The site says visitors are warmly invited whether they are lifelong Methodists or new to faith, and the choir needs no audition and takes singers of any experience. The church office is named as the place to ask..
