German
Advent–Christmas Service HUFF'S UNION CHURCH, ALBURTIS DECEMBER 7 at 7:00 PM
A candlelight service of Word and Sacrament in the German Language (Hochdeutsch) will be held on Sunday, December 7, at 7:00 pm, in Huff’s Union Church, Alburtis, near Mensch Mill Conference & Retreat Center.
Sponsored jointly by the PSEC Worship Mission Team and Huff’s Union Church, worship materials will be printed in both German and English, and everyone is welcome. The service will be a liturgy of scripture lessons with traditional German Advent and Christmas carols, concluding with Holy Communion (optional for those whose faith communities do not permit intercommunion).
Huff’s Church Pastor Jane Kropa and Conference Minister Russ Mitman will preside along with other leaders in the Conference. Dr. Mitman states: “This is an opportunity for German-speaking persons— particularly those not active in a church — to be in touch with their roots. It is also a good opportunity for those studying or wishing to learn German — including high school and college students— to participate in a meaningful worship experience in the language.”
There will be a time for fellowship following the service; donations of cookies will be appreciated. For more information contact Huff’s Union Church at 610-845-2626 or email office@ huffschurch.com.
