Community Worship Services – Bryn Athyn Church

An opportunity for the whole community to come together once a month to worship the Lord.

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 215-947-6225 ext.206 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.

Upcoming Community Worship Service Dates in 2023

We are not offering Community Worship services in November, December, April, or June because we will already be gathering as a whole congregation in that month for Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, or New Church Day. Also, the Community Worship Services will be on summer break in July and August.

Check out the Community Calendar for more on upcoming services and events.

Sermon

"The Word of God" - Rev. Malcolm Smith

At our Community Worship this Sunday we will be reminding ourselves of how powerful the Word of God is and how lucky we are to have it in our lives and community.

Music

The last prelude will be sung by the combined adult choir and choristers - an a cappella piece written around the time of the American Revolution. Annalisa Franzen will provide some special music on the violin, and the hymns will once again be a mix of traditional and contemporary selections.

Note

There will be no Informal, Young Children's or Adult Service on this date. Refreshments will be served following the service.

Children's activities will take place during the adult portion of the service. Children 5 and under must be accompanied by an adult.
