Ministries of Old Goshenhoppen
By God’s grace, the life of our congregation flows from the Lord’s Day: the Word preached, the Lord’s Supper and prayer. From there we strive to grow in Christ together and to serve our neighbors.
Christ builds His church
“I will build my church,” said our Lord, “and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it” (Matthew 16:18). The church is His work before it is ever ours. He gathers, feeds and keeps His people through ordinary means: the preaching of His Word, the sacraments and prayer.
So the heart of every ministry here is the Lord’s Day. Our other gatherings are not programs to fill a calendar. They are ways we strive, by God’s grace, to take the Word we hear on Sunday into our homes, our friendships and our community.
And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.Acts 2:42

The grounds on Church Road and the gatherings that grew up around themThe Oyster Picnic
Begun in 1877 as a fundraiser for the Sunday School, the picnic still fills the church grove each September: oysters raw, fried and stewed, Pennsylvania Dutch treats, bluegrass and Gemeinhaus tours. Proceeds benefit local charity and mission works.
Every member, a servant
Christ gives gifts to every member of His body, not for display but for the building up of one another. Whether you are new or have worshiped here for years, we would be glad to help you find a place to serve.

As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace.1 Peter 4:10
