How long is the service?

Each Sunday morning service lasts for approximately 90 minutes.

Is the space wheelchair accessible?

Our worship space is wheelchair accessible. Unfortunately, our Sunday school, nursery, and fellowship rooms are on a lower level and are not yet wheelchair accessible from within the building. We are more than happy to help those with mobility issues access these rooms through an exterior path. Please don’t hesitate to ask one of our greeters for help locating this path, if needed.

What should I wear?

The environment of Hope is casual yet worshipful. Some people dress up, and some don’t. So, simply put, come as you are.

What are the services like?

Sunday morning services include music, scripture readings, prayers, confessional readings, and relevant, gospel-centered preaching. Here’s a sample bulletin.

What are the sermons like?

We preach the Bible—verse-by-verse and book-by-book. We believe that you’ll find in the pages of Scripture, a compelling story that is relevant to your life. You can listen to some of our most recent sermons here.

What is the music like?

Through our music, we seek to do two things: to glorify the Triune God and to lead His people to do the same. We pursue music that is true, good, and beautiful—music that teaches the truth of Scripture, reveals the character of God, and proclaims the saving work of Jesus Christ.

The Word of God shapes every aspect of our worship. It informs what we sing, inspires how we sing, and directs our hearts toward the One we sing to. Most of our songs come from the Trinity Psalter Hymnal, which grounds us in the rich heritage of Reformed worship, while we also draw from the best of modern hymnody by writers such as the Gettys and Sovereign Grace Music.

What about my children?

Our goal is to help children know and walk with the Lord for a lifetime, instilling a strong foundation in their understanding of the Bible, the gospel, Reformed theology, and practical Christian living. We also want to come alongside parents, helping them pursue their biblical calling to bring up their children “in the discipline and instruction of the Lord” (Ephesians 6:4).

While we love having children of all ages in our worship service, we also offer nursery for children ages 5 and under, staffed by fully screened volunteers in compliance with Pennsylvania state law and the Child Protection Policy of Hope Presbyterian Church.
