Get Connected at Providence
The first and perhaps easiest way to begin your relationship with the church community at PPC is to participate in our Sunday morning worship service at 10:30AM.
SUNDAY MORNING COFFEE/FELLOWSHIP
At 10:00 AM, between the Sunday School hour and our worship service, we offer coffee and light refreshments. Mingle with friends, meet new people, and find out about the new opportunities for fellowship or service that have been added to our bulletin boards.
SUNDAY SCHOOL
We encourage participation in our Sunday School classes. We work hard to see that at least one of them will be of interest to you and you will find helpful. Meet and interact with folks in these discussion-oriented classes to whatever extent you would like. Of course, you are always welcome to just simply come and observe.
Keep your eyes open for the Inquirers’ Class. We typically offer this twice a year. This course gives you an introduction to the church in regard to what we believe and why. We strongly recommend you attend this class as soon as you see that it is offered. This is not a membership class, but it is a class that will give you all the information you need should you be interested in joining down the road.
SOCIAL GATHERINGS AND SPECIAL EVENTS
The second Sunday of each month is fellowship Sunday. We gather to share a potluck meal, to connect with each other socially, and to be able to get to know those who are new to Providence.
Additional church-wide gatherings include our annual church picnic, Easter pancake breakfast, Christmas program and dinner, as well as a variety of less formal gatherings like our game and trivia nights.
SMALL GROUPS / HOME FELLOWSHIPS
Small Groups are ideal places to connect. They are a vital part of our ministry here at Providence and are open to anyone regardless of their faith commitment or membership status in the church. The atmosphere of a Small Group is warm and non-threatening as most groups meet in the relaxed setting of someone’s home. We have small groups that meet on a variety of different nights, discussing a number of different topics and in locations all around York County.
MEN’S BREAKFAST
Every other Thursday Morning, 6:30 am - 7:30 am at Round the Clock Diner on Rte. 30. (Click for schedule) This is an opportunity to connect with other men of the church through fellowship, Bible study, and prayer. You are welcome to just show up or, if you want more information contact Chris Palmer or the church. We plan to always wrap things up by 7:30, but those who are able are always welcome to stick around and chat afterwards.
WOMEN’S Ministries
Providence has many ways for women to connect with each other and become involved in the life of the church through weekly Bible studies Wednesday evenings and/or Thursday mornings, monthly social activities, Refuge Ministries, Women’s Care Team, and our yearly Voices conference.
