THE PEACE OF CHRIST BE WITH YOU! 

Welcome to Newtown Presbyterian Church, a congregation of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). We are a community of faith in Jesus Christ.  We value worshiping, serving, and learning together. 

We, as his followers, seek to share Jesus Christ's vision of God and the world ("the Kingdom of God"), paying special attention to the sermons he preached, the lessons he taught, and his many acts of compassion and empowerment -- toward both the poor and the poor in spirit. 

By God's grace (and with God's help), we are following in Jesus' footsteps by sharing his ministries of compassion, justice, peace, and reconciliation with one another and the world. 

 
 What's our purpose?  What's our mission?  It's found in the New Testament of the Bible--the words of Jesus:

 "Love God with all of your heart, soul, and mind, and love your neighbor as you love yourself."

To learn more about our mission and vision at NPC as it relates to Matthew 25, please see our statement by visiting our

Mission and Vision page.

 Thanks be to God for Jesus Christ, who reveals the truth about God's will for the world. All praise, honor, and glory be unto God...and, again...

 Welcome to NPC! 


While we continue to work on upgrading our technology to allow for more successful and consistent live-streaming of our Sunday morning services, we are able to record them! We have posted links to the services on our Online Worship and Resources page. We hope to have Sunday services posted to this page by Tuesday for members and friends who were unable to be with us in person. Please contact the church office if you have any questions. Thanks for your understanding and patience!

 

 

 

Worship Service Information  

Join us for Sunday Worship

 9am Worship Service

This Sabbath worship service features traditional liturgy, prayers, and sacred hymnody, as well as choral anthems and a sermon based on the scriptural texts (usually Lectionary) for the day. Sunday school classes for children and youth are offered during the 9am worship. Holy Communion (Eucharistic Feast) is celebrated the first Sunday of every month. 

All children begin the morning with their families in the Sanctuary (with the exception of Nursery/Toddler children) and are then invited back to our Sunday school wing in the first part of worship to meet with their class. Parents can then pickup their children from the classroom after worship has concluded.

11am Communion Worship Service  

The 11AM worship service is basically identical to the 9AM service (liturgy, prayers, scripture, sermon, music), with this important amendment: we gather at The Table (at the invitation of the host, our Lord Jesus Christ) to celebrate Holy Communion/Eucharist every Sunday.  All are welcome to receive bread ("grain of the earth") and cup ("fruit of the vine"), which sacramentally bear witness to the body and blood of Jesus Christ.  The Lord's Supper celebrates and affirms God's abundant, amazing grace.  "Come," the old liturgy reads, "taste and see that the Lord is good!"  

Children are always welcome in our worship services! However, we do have a dedicated Childcare provider in our Nursery (across from the reception room with the TV) during our 9am service. If you feel you need to step out from the service with your child, please feel free to use our Nursery and Overflow space to stay connected to the service with your child/children. See one of our Ushers for any assistance. 

Worship bags for children can be picked up from one of our Ushers in the Welcome Room. 

We look forward to seeing you and sharing these most meaningful worship experiences with you!

From Psalm 46:
"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change, though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea; though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble with its tumult...'Be still, and know that I am God! I am exalted among the nations, I am exalted in the earth.' The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge." Amen.
