Welcome to Summit Presbyterian Church
We are a diverse and spirited congregation of the Presbyterian Church (USA), seeking to proclaim God's love in Christ through word and deed. We gather every Sunday morning at 10:00 a.m. We share joys and concerns, pray, sing and hear the Word proclaimed in scripture, sermon and music.
We come from many different backgrounds, and believe that the journey of faith is full of questions as well as joy. You can learn about our ministries, history and mission on this website. If you would like to worship God in a caring community, come "taste and see"! You can reach our pastor, Cheryl Pyrch, at (215) 438-2825 or cpyrch@summitpres.net

BIBLE STUDY
On Wednesday evenings from 7:30 - 8:30 we study the scripture passage for Sunday, and then share joys and concerns as we gather for prayer. It’s a chance to connect mid-week and enjoy rich conversation. Access from the worship link above.
AUTHOR/BOOK TALK
On Sunday, October 19 from 12:00 – 1:30 p.m. in the Parlor, the Social Justice and Environment Committee has invited Summit friend and neighbor Susan Landau to talk about and offer several selections for reflection and discussion from her recently published book, ‘Thou Shalt Not Stand Idly By’: Jews of Conscience on Palestine. The book looks at Jewish dissent to Zionism from the beginning of the movement. All are invited to respectful learning and discussion in the parlor after the coffee hour. We’ll have additional light refreshments. Reading the book ahead of time is not required, but it’s available to read online or download at no charge (and to order) here.
CHRISTIANS AGAINST CHRISTIAN NATIONALISM
The Summit Session voted to recommend the following Statement of Christians Against Christian Nationalism to the congregation for reflection and signing (it is for individual signers, not institutions): https://www.christiansagainstchristiannationalism.org/statement
All Christians are welcome to sign. ​
HOLY COMMUNION:
THEN & NOW
Adult Study, Thursday mornings at 10:00 a.m. in the parlor on October 2, 9, 23 and 30. Join us for an exploration of the Lord’s Supper. What are the different meanings? What do different Christians believe and do? How did it begin? We’ll enjoy coffee and refreshments and fellowship. During the month of October we’ll also have communion every Sunday – and every Sunday will be a little different. Please talk to Cheryl if you would like to come or have any questions.
ELDER DINER
On first and third Tuesdays, we welcome seniors from the church and community (55 and over) to a home-cooked meal and joyous fellowship. Upcoming dates: October 7, 21, November 4, 18, December 2, 16
