Welcome to the United Church of God. Please be aware that our site is under construction and numerous
links will not work properly.
United is a growing, Bible-believing church where over 150
people gather every Sunday morning to sing praise to God, learn about the
Bible, and build friendships. Our congregation exists to grow deeper spiritually while branching out to community to show our love. But it's more than Sunday morning--throughout the week and year we have activities for all ages.
- Afraid your kids won't like church? Sunday mornings at United feature a special worship service for kids
called "Kids'Own Worship." At this 11:00am celebration, kids sing songs
they like and have a wonderful time praising God in a way that is meaningful to them. If you've ever said to yourself, "I don't want to force my kids to go to church," then Kids'Own may be a great fit for you and your family.
- Are you in middle or high school? Our Youth Ministry has a large variety of opportunities
to serve, learn, and hang out. Every other month they feature "Converge" events--large youth gatherings
with exciting games and activities, free food, and space to hang with
friends. Sunday mornings the youth dig into God's Word, and most Sunday nights they gather for a great time to hang out, hear a life-changing message, play some sports and games, and eat! More importantly, the youth ministry is striving to have young men and women rooted in seven, lifelong key principles that will make their life journey a more fulfilling one.
- Do you like to help others with needs? Our Caring Clothing Closet reaches over 130
people four times a year by giving away free clothing, and sometimes toys and groceries. We always need
extra hands to sort and hang clothes and to help people when they come to get clothing.
- Are you concerned about healthy living? United has a Health
Ministry that educates the congregation
about health issues, provides medical equipment to those who need it,
and visits our members who not readily able to leave their home. The
Health Ministry also hosts blood drives and health fairs throughout the
year.
- Do you like sports? In the late spring and summer, United has a
softball team that plays in a local league. No matter what your playing
ability, our softball team has a lot of fun engaging in friendly competition. We also have a
Dartball team that plays in a local league as well.
- Do you like music? United has several
choirs, an all-ages worship team that is open to new vocalists and instrumentalists (guitars, keys, drums, etc.), and a youth praise band for 7-12th grades. Our 8:30am service features an
organist and choir, while our 11:00am service features a rock-style worship band.
This is only the beginning of ministries at United. If you want to know more, or even if
you just have a prayer need, please email us at info AT unitedinjesus.org or give us a call at
717-652-2418; we would like to hear from you!
