The Faith In Project is simply a way for all of us in the United Church of Christ - and beyond to our neighbors outside of our church doors - to connect with one another by lifting up our shared mission and faith.

The "Faith In" project launched in Cleveland, the national headquarters of the UCC, in June as a way to proclaim faith in a Stillspeaking God. Churches in the area are already living that faith in their neighborhoods through mission and outreach.

Penn Central Conference has just created a community on the UCC's faithinproject website. Each local church can set one up and members can join their local church and their conference communities. We will soon have Faith In shirts available that you can write in your community.

 

DVDs of all annual meeting sessions are available at cost. You may purchase each session for $5 or all four sessions for $18. Session 1: Friday night opening worship and plenary; Session 2: Saturday morning plenary (includes Ben Guess' Keynote address); Session 3: Saturday evening's Celebration of 50 Years (includes Lyle Weible's remarks); Session 4: Sunday morning closing plenary and closing worship. Send a check for the proper amount made out to Penn Central Conference and a note requesting which sessions to the conference office at 900 S Arlington Ave, Room 227A, Harrisburg, PA 17109. 

 

The Penn State fall semester is quickly approaching, and Faith UCC, State College would like to invite your new and returning PSU students to join us for worship this fall.  In addition, our church has planned a special Welcome Lunch for Penn State students, that will be held Sunday, September 9 at 12:00 p.m. after worship.

During the summer, many houses of worship are planning their programming for the coming year. We know many churches are putting a focus on environmental stewardship. To help you launch programming on the environment, GreenFaith provides "Getting Started" resources - for institutions and households.
