We are very excited to share this news with you. Thank God and by His Grace, our church community continues to grow and the area which once had a handful of families, now serves about 300 families. In efforts to better serve them, we are starting a new community in Collingswood that can bring the church closer to her children.
We have rented a community center in Collingswood in order to begin this service.
First liturgy will be on Saturday 11/15/25 from 8-11 am.
This is not to say that a future church must be in that specific area but God will determine for us what the location will be and what the next steps are.
Note: This does not impact or change the current service/schedule at our beloved church of St Anthony but rather is intended to be an extension of our family at St Antony.
Please pray for this service.
Below is the address and attached is the parking pass. Please see the attached picture for the location of the parking lot.
