Live ONLINE (Virtual) Bible Study
Every other Wednesday at 8:30 p.m. (see calendar for next meeting - days/times may change)
Facilitator:  Pastor Mike Coulson

We know there can be many obstacles standing in the way between you and a Bible study so we are going to do out best to clear some of them out of the way. Every other Tuesday at 8:30 p.m. we have a live Bible study online through Zoom. We study the Bible together live and from each of our homes through video conferencing to eliminate the need for finding a babysitter or driving at night. We are currently studying the Gospel of John!
To join in simply click on this link to join the Bible Study at the starting time: https://zoom.us/j/6103771696 and use 040420 as the password.
You can you the existing camera and microphone in your laptop, a webcam and microphone plugged into a desktop, or by using the mobile app!
If you have any questions just call the church at 610-377-1696 and we will walk you through what you will need to do!​

Bare Necessities Pantry
10/23 From 10am -1pm
Our next pantry day at St Peter’s Community Resource Center is this Saturday.  The more volunteers we have to help man the food and toiletry tables, the easier it is to be able to step aside with people to have conversations and start building relationships.  This is a great opportunity to help people physically and spiritually!
