Overview
Community Worship Services offer a chance to gather for worship, reflection, and connection as a community. There is one service on this Sunday, beginning at 10:00 a.m., and you may want to arrive a bit early to find parking and a seat. (There is no Informal, Young Children's or Adult service on this date.)
Early in the service, children are invited forward for a children’s talk. Following this, they can head to the south end of the building to take part in a variety of supervised activities which vary by season. Children ages 5 and up will be invited to go to specific areas based on their age group, with the understanding that they will picked up afterward by their parent or guardian. Children younger than 5 are also welcome to participate, provided a parent or responsible family member stays with them.
After the service, families are invited to gather for refreshments in the Social Hall, outside the cloister, or by the porte cochère—a great opportunity to connect and enjoy time together.

How to Get Involved
This service will have many opportunities to get involved in helping to make it a rich community worship experience. Here are some of the areas we will need help with:
- Greeters – helping people find what they are looking for
- Refreshment contributions, set-up and clean-up
- Supervisors and assistants for children’s’ activity “stations” – mixed ages
- Art/craft projects leadership, set-up and clean-up
- Discussion leaders
- Families to help with chancel set-up, ushering, etc.
Please contact Nina at nina.dewees@brynathynchurch.org or 215-544-1413 to learn more and describe where you would most like to volunteer.
We look forward to how this new church service will blossom into worship that will serve many people together.
