Pastor Behm and his spouse just want to help people find the love of Jesus here! The music is uplifting. Demus and Dustin are quite the singing duo, plus the other singers too. If you come early to pray, you will feel something is different here. And prayer at the alter at the conclusion of every service is special… people praying together, one on one, in small groups… just very special. Services start at 9am for prayer on Sundays and 5:30pm for prayer on Wednesdays. Jesus is in this church, and you will find Him here too!

Outstanding place to get a good dose of spiritual things. The Lord is definitely in this place. Come check it out if you have any needs. FYI, we ALL have fallen short in some way. This church is more like a hospital for the sick and needy. Please join us. We love you!

Have not been physically to church due to Covid19 and being high risk. Miss this warm friendly congregation. You are a guest once, then you are treated as family. Great Pastor Behn, Co-pastor Tony Romans is awesome so is Brother Richie, who is often seen out preaching on Penn Street. They have been hosting service online and in person at times. If you visit you will feel welcomed like no other church in Reading, PA It's been a challenging year for everyone, but church family here is strong!
