Sunday Morning

ALL are welcome to join us for worship, education, and fellowship on Sunday mornings here at State College Presbyterian Church. Here are the important details:

Who?

You! Yes, you! YOU are welcome to join us as we gather as a community each Sunday.  We strive to stay true to our Welcome Statement here at SCPC:

In response to God’s unconditional love and Jesus’ example of hospitality, State College Presbyterian Church is called to be a welcoming community.  We affirm all people equally, regardless of, for example, race, ethnicity, citizenship status, age, sex/gender identity, sexual orientation, capability, religious background, or circumstance of life.  We are committed to removing barriers that separate us.  As we gather in worship, fellowship and service, all are welcome. 

And that “all” includes You!

What?

We worship in our historic and beautiful sanctuary each Sunday.   Our worship is also livestreamed on our YouTube channel found here: State College Presbyterian Church 

Following worship we offer a fellowship hour which takes place in the Social Hall where light refreshments (coffee, lemonade, water, pastries, etc.) are offered.

During the program year (generally September to May) we also offer our Exploration Hour–a time for people of all ages (preschool through adult) to learn and grow in faith.

When?

Worship begins at 9:30 am and usually runs about an hour in length

Fellowship Hour and Exploration Hour (when in season) begin at 10:30 and conclude at 11:30

Where?

We are located at 132 W Beaver Avenue in State College, Pennsylvania.

We have a small parking lot adjacent to the building.

Additional parking can be found in two surface lots adjacent to our parking lot as well as in the Beaver Ave Garage (200 W Beaver Ave.) or Fraser St Garage (135 S Fraser St.)

Most Sundays parking is free in the adjacent lots and garages.

On Sundays when the parking authority charges the event rate we offer vouchers for free parking in the garages.

What Else to Know:

Our worship generally follows a traditional, Presbyterian order of worship but does vary in form and substance (especially musically) from time to time.

We have greeters and ushers at the exterior doors of the church as well as the entry doors to the sanctuary to help guide you and answer any questions you may have

We have a welcome desk located just outside of the church office that is staffed by an elder of the church each Sunday to answer any questions you may have

We have printed bulletins available for all worshippers to follow along in the service. We also project the liturgy (and other important information) on the front walls of the sanctuary
