REV. JOHN SHEDWICK, Pastor
QUINTIN LERCH, Minister of Music
All are invited to join us in worship. We are a friendly church, always welcoming visitors warmly. Those who choose to join us find themselves surrounded by a loving and caring congregation of believers. We have opportunities for worship, music, Christian education, social groups and mission outreach.
Under the leadership of our pastor, John W. Shedwick, we strive to be a positive Christian presence in our community. Our connectedness to PC (USA), our local church, and each other extends beyond our church doors on Sunday mornings as we try to lead lives according to His plan, using the gifts He has given us individually as we work to show God's love and Grace here on Earth.
9:30 AM SUNDAY SCHOOL
11:00 AM SUNDAY WORSHIP
***********
What will I find when I enter the church? A deacon will be at the door to greet you, and an usher will handyou a bulletin, and escort you to a seat, if you wish. Either one of them can answer any questions you may have. They’ll also guide you to the nursery, the restroom, or any other place you need to find in our building.
How will I know what is going on in the service? The bulletin will enable you to follow the service. Almost everything is in it, including corporate prayers, hymn numbers, the Scripture lesson, and other portions of the service.
What about Sunday School? We have Sunday classes for ages three to adult. They meet at 9:30 am, prior to the worship service.
Any special considerations? We are handicapped accessible – located on the street level. We also print large print bulletins for those who have sight difficulties. A copy of the morning’s sermon is available for those who don’t hear well and would like to follow along.
How can I find out more? Check the rest of this website, or call the church office. And be sure to speak to the pastor after the service-he and his wife greet all worshippers there following worship.
IF YOU ARE VISITING US FOR THE FIRST TIME:
Where are we? We’re at the corner of Fourth St. and Elm Ave. in Woodbury Heights. Elm Ave. runs between Woodbury-Glassboro Rd. and Route 45. We’re just up the street from the Hollywood Diner. On your GPS, we’re 551 Fourth St.
How should I dress? We encourage all worshippers to be comfortable. Avoid cut-offs and jeans and T-shirts. Other than that, dress as you would for visiting a friend. (Children and teenagers usually dress in school clothes.)
Where do I park? We have a large parking lot, though you might want to arrive ten to fifteen minutes early to get a good space. Ample on-street parking is also available.
Do we have a nursery? Yes! We encourage parents to keep their children over kindergarten age in the sanctuary for worship. We have a special time for them during the service, and we do have a nursery in our old building, always staffed by an adult and a teenager.
