     COVID has put a burden on church activities everywhere. We have learned a lot from COVID, such as how to bring worship to people who cannot be present in church. Churches of all denominations would not have undertaken the task of buying equipment and software, training willing parishioners, and organizing worship to be compatible with recording and streaming the event if it hadn't become necessary because of COVID.

     Each Sunday hundreds of churches bring the Word of God to hundreds, if not thousands of people across the globe. These worship services can be viewed and reviewed during the week at the individual's convenience.

     We are one of those churches that has incorporated online participation in worship each Sunday. We also, have incorporated instruction on how to take communion at home when worshiping online. The instructions are posted few days before Communion Sunday on this website.

Adult and children's Sunday School is an important focus of our Sundays.  Our Adult Sunday School is led by one of our members from 9:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. Sunday mornings. Movies and videos are often used as part of the lesson plan. 

Children's Sunday School takes place at the same time. A curriculum is selected by the teachers, with arts and crafts augmenting the lessons being taught. The children's Sunday School class often does special singing and presentations for holidays like Christmas and Easter. Students lead worship once or twice each year under the guidance of the Sunday School teachers.

Sunday School runs in sync with the normal school year with a break in the summer months..

We are blessed to have a excellent, professional organist as our music director. Music is selected based upon what the sermon and scripture of that Sunday.

Thanksgiving opens the Holiday Season for us. Our Deacons collect food items for the local Food Pantry. In addition we as a congregation collect personal items and gloves, scarves, and hats for the homeless of Wilkes Barre. Our ongoing work for One Great Hour of Sharing during lent and Advent Special Offerings to support other mission work is a corner stone of our congregation.
