McCollensburg United Presbyterian Church

116 S 2nd St
717-485-4400

The mission of our church is to glorify God by proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Christ and by witnessing to all persons the knowledge and love of God.

To fulfill this mission we are called:

To worship God meaningfully both in public and in private;
To nurture our faith through prayer and the study of God's word and His will for our lives;
To provide a supportive, loving, and caring ministry to and with one another;
To reach out and welcome others into this ministry;
To seek out and serve those in need in both the community and the world.

We pledge our time, our resources, and our involvement in the attainment of this mission.

The McConnellsburg United Presbyterian Church is the only Presbyterian congregation in the McConnellsburg area. The communicant members number 185 (year 2000 figure). The complex consists of the church, an education building and Fellowship House which houses the church office. Only the Sanctuary is handicap accessible.

Historically, this valley known as the Great Cove was settled by the Scots-Irish who arrived before 1750. This earliest place of worship, with an occasional preacher, was under the sky. As they grew in number, they erected houses of worship: log stone, wood and brick. From mergers nationally and locally, they became one.

We have a Sunday morning worship service (nursery available) a superb adult choir, bell choir, Sunday School, youth group, Presbyterian Women's group, study group, adult social club and also a Library.
