WE INVITE YOU TO JOIN US
Join us each Sunday at 10:30am for our traditional worship service as together we lift up our hearts in joy and praise.
​Scripture tells us to worship the Lord with gladness, to come together as God's people in thanksgiving. Because of Jesus' life, death and resurrection we are called to come before him with confidence. So we choose to do that together in worship.
Children During Worship
Children of all ages are welcomed in our worship so that they may feel included in our family of faith.
Depending on each family's comfort level and need, we have several options for child care and enrichment programs:
-
What should I expect on my first visit?We enlist all the traditional elements of worship—music, scripture, sermon, prayer—in an atmosphere that is inviting, welcoming and friendly. Our worship services are easy to follow, and we will never (no, never!) ask you to stand and identify yourself as a visitor. Our ushers will offer you a bulletin as you enter the sanctuary. The bulletin guides you through the service with clear direction as to when to stand, sit, what to say and when to sing. Most hymns are sung from The Presbyterian Hymnal in your pew, but sometimes we use songs from outside the hymnal, which will be printed in your bulletin.
-
When and where are services on Sunday mornings? How do I get there?Yorkminster is conveniently located on Route 17 in the Grafton area of York County. Our 10:30 a.m. traditional service takes place in the main sanctuary. Our goal is to provide a meaningful, stress-free worship experience for you. You’ll be greeted at the door upon arriving. Our greeters are there to assist you, provide directions, and warmly welcome you. They can point you in the direction of anything you need.
-
Where should I park?As you pull into our parking lot, you'll find ample parking—including plenty of handicapped spaces.
Communion
We serve Communion monthly, usually on the first Sunday of the month. We invite everyone who believes to join us in Communion. This is not just a Presbyterian table, nor is it merely Yorkminster's table—this is a welcome table for all.
