Welcome to Summit Presbyterian Church!
We are a diverse and spirited congregation of the Presbyterian Church (USA), seeking to proclaim God's love in Christ through word and deed. We gather every Sunday morning at 10:00 a.m., where we share joys and concerns, pray together, sing, listen to music and hear the Word proclaimed in scripture and sermon. On first Sundays we celebrate communion. Every Sunday we have a Children’s Message and invite children to Sunday School. Our volunteer chancel and bell choirs help us to make a joyful noise.
We remain active in mission through our work with POWER (Philadelphians Organized to Witness, Empower and Rebuild), PA Interfaith Power and Light and other ministries. You can learn more on this website.
We come from many different backgrounds, and believe that the journey of faith is full of questions as well as joy. If you are seeking to worship God in a caring community, or if you'd simply like to learn more, please join us! Write us at lucas@summitpres.net so we may put you on our mailing list and invite you to our Zoom meetings.
Grace and Peace,
Pastor Cheryl
