Friends,
Pennington Presbyterian Church welcomes you! We are a community of faith, blessed by God and committed to being a blessing for others. At the heart of our life together is worship. We gather each Sunday at 10:15 a.m., for worship as a family of God, young and old and in-between, united in proclamation and prayers, scriptures and songs, and stories and sacraments.
Welcome Sunday is on September 8. We begin in Heritage Hall at 9:00 for a light breakfast, followed by a special “Blessing of the Backpacks.” Everyone is invited to bring a backpack (or a gym bag or brief case or diaper bag….) for a special moment of prayer as the fall begins. This is also a time to hear about various classes and small groups to help you grow in faith and to connect with other people who are sharing this journey. Children will meet their church school teachers and see their classrooms. New children, youth, and adults are invited to try out a class or group at any time. No sign up is required and all are free of cost.
Other opportunities to connect, worship, grow, and serve abound! We are committed to inspiring and equipping disciples of Jesus Christ to share the transforming love of Jesus Christ. We hope that you will browse this website for more information about our church and come and be part of our church family on Sundays!
In Christ,
Nancy Mikoski
Pastor
Pennington Presbyterian Church Banner Outreach
If you have driven down South Main Street, you may have noticed a banner in front of our historic sanctuary building. The 4-foot by 8-foot banners with big blue messages are meant to communicate how we put in practice our Christ-centered faith. We want to welcome and show love to our neighbors raising children; to those struggling with mental health or addiction issues; to members of the LGBTQIA community struggling with equal treatment and full acceptance; to the immigrants among us yearning to be accepted as friends and neighbors and not strangers; and to other groups struggling for acceptance and understanding. We want all of our neighbors to know that we are an accepting and supportive congregation and will love them as Jesus taught us.
LGBTQIA+ Banner says welcome to Pennington Presbyterian Church
In June, our banner says welcome to persons who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning, intersex, and asexual or aromantic +. (The “+” at the end of the acronym reflects that there are people in this community who do not fit neatly into one of these distinctions.) The banner is accompanied by a rainbow flag, the international symbol of LGBTQIA+ acceptance.
