Welcome!
YOU ARE WELCOME HERE. YOU BELONG HERE.
Brookville Presbyterian Church welcomes everyone. We welcome all people, without exception, to participate in the worship and community life of the church. We affirm that God welcomes all, strangers and friends, as children of God. Our hope is that when you come to church, you feel like you belong here.
JOIN US FOR SUNDAY WORSHIP AT 10:30 A.M.
Worship Services are about an hour long. When you come, you’ll receive a printed “Order of Service” bulletin, so you can follow along and participate throughout the hour of worship.
The service includes:
A time to share the peace of Christ and greet one another.
A time for children (those who wish, can come up front in the sanctuary), during which they hear a story and can say a prayer.
A time of collective prayer that includes sharing prayer requests, joys and concerns, as a microphone is passed around.
A 15- to 20-minute sermon from the Pastor. You can listen to some sermons here.
Singing. We sing beautiful hymns praising and glorifying God!
The church celebrates The Lord's Supper (Communion / Eucharist)

GETTING HELP WHEN YOU VISIT
A church member is always at the Welcome Table in the main hallway. They are people there to help you find your way.
WHAT TO WEAR
Come as you are! You’ll find a range of attire among the church — dresses, suit and tie, jeans and polo. Presence is valued more than attire. Dress in a way that makes you comfortable.
PARKING
The church has a secure lot behind the building. Street parking is also available along Main Street.
ENTERING THE CHURCH BUILDING
Follow the walkway from the parking lot to the left side of the building.
ACCESSIBILITY
We are challenged with an old building and continue to work toward accessibility. Wheelchairs will find easiest access to the sanctuary using the Main Entrance ramp.
CHILDREN IN WORSHIP
We offer a safe, loving, and welcoming environment for all children and their parents. Children are welcome and encouraged to experience worship.
Children have different needs and worship activity bags are available. You can find them in the Tower Entryway (the doors found left of the pulpit).
For children up to grade 6 who do not wish to remain in worship, church school offered by dedicated church members is available. The children learn a Bible story, sing, dance, pray, and play.
