IN-PERSON WORSHIP

Sunday worship services are held in in our sanctuary at 9am and 11am!

Masks are optional (except for children ages 2-4 and volunteers working with children ages 4 and under) but they are encouraged. There is a marked "masks required" section in the front right of the sanctuary for those who don't wish to sit with unmasked attendees.

ONLINE WORSHIP

You can join us virtually via our live-streamed service at 9am on YouTube and Facebook, or watch the service latestarting at 10:45am. 

SUNDAY SCHOOL

Newborn-Preschool: Class is available during both services. Upon drop-off, parents/guardians and children receive wristbands with matching numbers. Parents supply their wristband to pick up their child at the conclusion of the service. 

Kindergarten-Grade 5: There will be NO K-5 Sunday School for the month of August! Children will stay with their families for the duration of the services and there will be activity sheets available for them.

Grades 6-12: All youth will begin in the sanctuary for worship with their parent/guardian and will be dismissed to the Large Youth Room after the Congregational Prayer.

POST-SECONDARY

SCHOLARSHIP FUND

Education offers opportunity and equity, and it is as important as ever in helping students not only survive but thrive. Some students, however, hit roadblocks to affordable education because of family, economic, or other circumstances. HBIC has set up a scholarship fund to help students cover a small portion of their college costs like textbook or lab fees. These funds can help students towards finishing their degrees so they can find jobs that God has particularly gifted them to do. If you're interested in an application, contact Pastor Brie.

GIRLS WHO CODE

The Central PA Girls Who Code Club is a free program for 4th to 12th grade girls to explore coding in a fun and friendly environment. This club teach girls to use computer science to impact their community and provide a supportive sisterhood of peers and role models to sustain their interest. The group meets on Monday evenings from 6-7:30pm in the CE room from September 26 to May 8. Contact Lin Taylor for more info.

NOW PLAYING...

Each Friday, check out our new weekly Spotify playlist for the upcoming Sunday's worship setlist. It'll be live until the following Friday when we update it for the new week!
