Please contact our church office at (717) 843-8991 or office@faithuccyork.org

A Healing Service will take place the first Wednesday each month at 6:30pm.  If anyone wants or needs prayer, contact Linda Shissler or Anthony Ricchiuto and we will pray for you.  Also, feel free to come and be prayed over and around!

Adult Sunday School are Sundays at 11am in the Chapel.  All are welcome to join the group for a DVD presentation followed by discussion.  We will begin our classes with John Ortberg's "All the Places to Go - How Will You Know?"  Rarely in the Bible does God command someone to "stay".  Instead, he opens a door and invites us to walk through it - into the unknown.  Ortberg opens our eyes to the countless open doors God places before us every day, teaches us how to recognize them, and embrace all the extraordinary opportunities that await us.  I look forward to welcoming you and seeing where this will lead each one of us to go in our journey with God.

A weekly Bible study is planned to begin Monday, Sept 15th at 10:30am and continue for about 8 weeks.  Our Mission Statement includes "Nurture Relationships", and this is a great way to nurture our relationship with Jesus and God and each other by meeting together to study God's Word.  

All spots have been filled for 2025!  If you are interested in hosting Coffee Time in 2026, please contact Doris Snyder or Sheryl Smith.

New volunteers are welcome and will be assisted by Sheryl or Doris if needed. This is a wonderful opportunity to serve the church and get to know more of the members.

If you know a member of the church that will be going to college and would like the most up to date information about the scholarship program, please send an email to treasurer@faithuccyork.org.
