Looking Ahead
Join us in worship, service and fellowship!
On Sunday, November 2, 2025 at 10AM, we gather as one community of faith to celebrate All Saints’ Day: a time of remembrance, gratitude, and hope. We will light candles in memory of members of Friedens UCC who have entered eternal life this past year, and you are invited to light a candle for loved ones who continue to shine in your heart.
The Upper Perk Homeless Coalition is making plans to open the Code Blue Shelter again this year. The shelter is the house owned by Pennsburg UCC that sits right next to the church.
If you are interested in volunteering OR learning more about volunteering at the shelter, there are two volunteer training dates coming up. The Training is Sunday, November 2nd at 4:15pm
There’s also an Open House for anyone interested in checking out the Code Blue Shelter  (Pennsburg UCC house, 777 Main St. Pennsburg) on Sunday, November 2nd from 2pm to 4pm.
