Ministry Description |
Tinicum UCC (TUCC) is an historic country church with a small, welcoming congregation and a big heart. While other churches missed services at the beginning of the pandemic, TUCC immediately switched to Zoom only services thanks to the ingenuity of members of our congregation. This connection allowed us to worship not only with ourselves but also with family and friends from out of our area, providing vital connections during that isolating time. When returning to the sanctuary was possible, we began hybrid services which we continually strive to improve. We are seeking a minister as a result of the full retirement of our part-time settled pastor who has been with us for five years, during which new persons have joined and/or become involved in our church. Also, during this time period, our church’s older members have continued to age, and several have passed away. In this time of increased non-church involvement in our society, TUCC hopes to find a way to better connect with a more diverse, multigenerational segment of our community. We know the community needs support and hope during the challenging times of our day, and TUCC needs new members of any age who are willing to partner together with us in ministry. We are seeking a minister who can both help us think creatively and practically about this outreach and growth and who can minister to our current congregation in terms of Sunday services, Bible study, and visitation. |
