Dear Friends,

I am delighted to welcome you into the life and ministry of the Aaronsburg Charge of the United Church of Christ. We are comprised of two UCC churches: St. Peter’s (located on RT 45 in Aaronsburg, PA) and Salem (located on RT 45 in Spring Mills, PA.). We are part of the Northern Association of the Penn Central Conference of the United Church of Christ.

Our churches are small, growing and welcoming congregations comprised of people from various walks of life. We come together to seek out God’s guidance on our journeys through worship, study and fellowship activities. We are open to new ideas for learning, and having fun together! What are you seeking from church?

Some of our members sought support as they helped raised their grandchildren with autism. So they formed a support group which meets monthly (we are reading a book together, inviting guest speakers and sharing what we have found helpful).

Others wanted a study group that also had a social component. This group meets on Tuesday mornings to study and then goes out to lunch at various area restaurants.

Another wanted to get together to build friendships and network. They formed a Young Adult Group, which meets monthly and is a great way for persons new to the community to get involved. Last year they hosted their first community-wide Easter egg hunt for the community (in conjunction with the Aaronsburg Civic Center) with over 150 persons attending!

So if you are looking for a small church setting where you are not just part of the crowd, a place where you are welcomed and have the opportunity to get to know others, talk about spirituality (questions and all!), serve others, study (children, youth and adults), and share your gifts and talents—then come join us! For no matter who you are, or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here.

God is still speaking…

Grace and Peace,
