PROGRAMS

SUNDAY SCHOOL

St. John’s offers two Sunday School classes for children:

2 YEARS OLD THROUGH 5TH GRADE

GRADE 6 THROUGH COLLEGE AGED STUDENTS

Both groups gather for Chapel at 9:30am each Sunday for a “mini” worship service which includes singing, prayer, scripture, and an offering. The children then split into two groups for their respective Sunday School classes from 9:45am -10:45am.

ADULT FORUM

Greetings! You are all once again invited to join us Sunday mornings before worship for a variety of studies and programs. And bring your friends! We gather in the Trinity Room at 9:30am for coffee or tea, then begin our program at 9:45am with a sharing of joys and concerns.

This is what we have planned for October:

October 6 - Have you heard about the proposed Keystone Conference? Pastor Becky will update us on the conference and answer any questions. Lots of exciting possibilities!

October 13 - Sergeant John Leonard III, Community Outreach of the Allentown Police Department, will join us for a discussion on police activities in our neighborhood and city.

October 20 - Many of you know Geoff Brace, County Commissioner and Legislative Assistant to State Representative Michael Schlossberg, who will be visiting with us to share on the workings of our county and state governments. Let’s give Geoff a big welcome!

October 27 - In 2023, St. John’s UCC welcomed the start of our Green Team! Join us this week as the members of the Green Team share important information and updates, as well as opportunities to get involved!
