Visiting for the first time?
We know it can be overwhelming to visit a new place. At Springfield Church of the Brethren we want you to feel comfortable and at home for your first visit. So here is some information to help you know what to expect.
How do I get to your church and how do I enter? We are on the hill at the corner of Albrecht and Lessig, in Springfield Township. You can enter the parking lot from either street. When you come in at the main doors (under the large awning), go to the top of the stairs. You will be greeted by members who will welcome you and answer any questions you may have. Please feel free to sit where you are most comfortable. Due to Covid-19, we do have some pews closed to help with distancing. There is an accessibility elevator available as you enter the main doors and a long ramp leading to the other entrance. Greeters will be available to assist you.

Will my children be well cared for? Children are welcome in our services. If you desire we have excellent childcare and nursery for infants through nursery school. (The nurseries are located on the top floor.) Following our children's story, which is part of the worship service, we invite the older children (K-4 grade) to go downstairs for junior worship (although all children are welcome in the service upstairs). During this time children will be invited to participate in Bible stories and worship. (Currently on hiatus due to Covid-19) What is the worship service like? Our services are relaxed, we are there to enjoy being together and with God. We celebrate with music, prayer, and Scripture. We incorporate a mixture of traditional and contemporary music and celebrate the many types of talent God has bestowed upon our family. If you are used to having communion (eucharist) regularly, it will look a bit different, we typically have communion during worship once every quarter. We do celebrate Love Feast twice a year in the evening, these are amazing services to be apart of. |
