Frequently
Asked
Questions

Worship services at CHPC include prayer and praise, choral singing and instrumental music, Scripture readings and preaching, and the celebration of the Sacraments of Baptism and Communion. The style of worship is neither wholly traditional nor unstructured, drawing from both ancient liturgical and contemporary styles. The 8:30 AM ARISE family service is informal and tailored to the spiritual needs of young adults and families with children. Worship bulletins provide clear instructions for participation. Visitors are able to enter and exit the sanctuary discreetly or linger and visit with folks.

 How do I get to the church?

The church is located at the corner of N. 23rd and Walnut in Camp Hill, PA, one block north of Market Street. A large parking lot is across Walnut St. from the church. A stone walkway off Walnut St. leads to the Gathering Place main entrance with stairs and an elevator to the sanctuary. Welcomers are available for directions.

​What should I wear?

Congregants wear a variety of clothing for worship, from business jackets and dresses to shorts and sneakers. Casual dress is not inappropriate or unusual.

 Do you have activities for children?

During the school year there is the 8:30am ARISE family service which is tailored for families with children, followed by a 9am Sunday School period for children, youth, and adults. During worship, childcare with trained child care workers is available for newborns to 6 year olds. Welcomers at the Gathering Place can provide directions to the nursery, sanctuary seating near a designated Children's Corner with table and chairs, or rooms for nursing and changing. Children are always welcome in the sanctuary for worship.

​Are there programs before and after worship?

Between 8:30am ARISE and 10:30am Worship, a 9am Christian Formation Hour includes Sunday School offerings for adults, children, and youth. Coffee and refreshments are also available in the Gathering Place and Fellowship Hall at 9:00 am before and after the worship service during the program year. Times and items vary during the summer.
