God is with us!
The
name of our parish, Emmanuel, translates to "God is with us,"
and indeed God's spirit enlivens everything we do together at
Emmanuel Church -- our worship, fellowship activities, teaching,
learning, and pastoral and outreach ministries.
A
parish is its people. We are families of all shapes and sizes,
friends and neighbors, young and old, from many backgrounds,
joining together to worship, serve and grow as Christ's people,
the Church. Emmanuel’s people number over three hundred baptized
members. We are a parish of the Episcopal Diocese of
Pennsylvania, a division of the Episcopal Church in the United
States. The Episcopal Church is an autonomous member of the
worldwide Anglican Communion, which is rooted in historic,
catholic (universal) worship and faith traditions as well
as in the reforms and renewals of the Protestant Reformation.
You
will find Emmanuel, like most Episcopal parishes, to be open,
welcoming, and inclusive; and accepting of wherever you are in
your faith journey.
We'd
love to meet you!
