Who we are
Who is Penn Forest Worship Center?
We are a small Wesleyan congregation with a huge vision for the future, serving an even bigger God, dedicated to relentless pursuit of God and the people he loves.
Our mission has five parts:
Reaching, Uniting, Growing, Discovering, and Committing.
No matter where you are in your walk with Christ, Penn Forest Worship Center has a spot just for you.
Penn Forest Worship Center exists to reach non-believers, to unite them with Christians,
help them grow in their faith, discover their gifts and see them become radically
committed to Jesus Christ both in life and in death.
