Sunday Worship

We understand that each of us has a unique faith story and relates to God in a personal way. At SPC, we seek to worship God collectively in a way that makes room for personal spiritual growth and engages the voices of four generations. While our worship services, all in the Reformed tradition, offer distinct worship experiences, you’ll always find the Word of God at the center. And, of course, all of God’s children, of any age, are welcome in every service.

Early Worship
8:00 am (in Loeffler Chapel)

The Early Morning Worship Service at 8:00 am will take place in Loeffler Chapel. This 45-minute service allows worshipers to engage with Scripture through guided discussion in lieu of a sermon, and music is led by a pianist. The order of worship and liturgy very similar to those experienced in the Sanctuary at 10:15 AM.

Lord’s Day Worship
10:15 am (in the Sanctuary)

Worship in the Sanctuary at 10:15 am embodies a classic worship tradition. The Word is proclaimed through liturgy, song and preaching. Music led and enhanced by robed choir and pipe organ. Communion for both services is served on the first Sunday of each month.

Communion

The Presbyterian Church practices an open communion. Anyone who wants to know the love of Jesus Christ is invited to share in the Lord’s Supper. We celebrate the Sacrament of Communion on the 1st Sunday of each month in our 10:15 am services, and the 3rd Sunday of each month in our 8:00 am service.

Home Communion: We want to make sure that anyone who wishes to receive the Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper is able. With the help of our Deacons, communion is regularly brought into the homes of our members who are home-bound.

Would you like to receive home communion, or know someone who would? Are you an ordained elder or deacon and would like to participate in this ministry? If so, please contact Rev. Sarah Cooper Searight at Sarah.Cooper.Searight@swarthmorepres.org.

Fellowship Hour

Following 10:15 am worship, everyone is invited to gather in Fellowship Hall for light refreshments, beverages, and a bit of fellowship. While there, take advantage of the many displays by our many committees, providing you with details about their missions, and inviting you to share in their ministries.
