Who we are ...
Presbyterian Student Fellowship is an official student organization of Penn State. PSF is a space and a community. We host weekly gatherings, on-campus events, and Spring Break experiences. You'll find opportunities to discover honest conversations, good friends, vocational and spiritual support, and a bit of peace in your college life.
 
If you want to help support this ministry or you’re a college-aged person that wants to get involved contact Allison Maus.

What We're Doing ...

Worship
State College Presbyterian Church is currently offering two forms of worship. We have a small outdoor, in-person gathering every Sunday morning at 9am. Join us on the church lawn for this short service. Masks and distancing required. BYO chair/blanket. We also have online worship services posted to YouTube every week.  Find those here.

Thursday Night Fellowship Gatherings
Thursdays will look a little different this year.  We will start with our gatherings on  August 27th and September 3rd 6:00 -8:00 pm online via zoom

Penn State has asked that all in-person gatherings be suspended through Sept 6th. After this date we will re-evaluate and possibly gather in-person if deemed appropriate by the university.

Anti-racism as people of faith small group
In Collaboration with Lutheran Student Community and Wesley Foundation at PSU, we will gather virtually every month to discuss how we can be more actively anti-racist. We will read articles, watch videos, share experiences together to drive our discussion and push ourselves to learn new things about the history of systems of racism so that we might work for a future filled with more justice and love. This group will start mid-September 2020. Send Allison an email if you would like to participate or receive more information.
