When a church exists in a neighborhood for many years, it is only natural that it would interact with the surrounding society. The Schwenkfelders have been in what is now known as the Lansdale/Worcester area since the 1730's. The Worcester Historical Society (website: http://www.worcesterhistorical.org/) is interested in the preservation of the history of this area from that time and earlier. Naturally, this involves the preservation of artifacts and documents that remember ...the life of important events and people in Worcester. It also means preserving the history of those who formed the framework of Worcester life. In this podcast, we interviewed Jim Thompson, who is the treasurer of the Worcester Historical Society about Worcester history and the Schwenkfelder Church. #worcesterpennsylvania #schwenkfelders #centralschwenkfelderchurch #worcesterhistory #worcesterpa

Many people have taken interest in a rare star in the sky this December. Some have said that it may be the Christmas Star of many years ago. While this is possible, there are better signs that the Savior has come.

At this time of year, the church looks to the hope found in the birth of Jesus Christ. A growing number in western society are doubting whether Jesus ever existed. In this webinar, the evidence of Jesus' existence is presented from non-Christian sources and early Christian sources. At Centrally Speaking, we encourage you to consider how Jesus is real and not a myth, and that he gives hope this holiday season. https://foclonline.org//existence-jesus-look-non-christian
