Woodside loves to welcome children into God’s family through baptism. We view it as a partnership. During the baptism ceremony the parents and the congregation promise to teach the child to love and follow Jesus. This partnership is so essential for the spiritual growth of the child that we ask parents to first commit to becoming part of the Woodside community. After taking the Putting Down Roots Class and joining Woodside, the family can contact the church office (215-493-4145) and select a service on a specific Sunday for the baptism. Our pastor will visit with you the week before that Sunday to go over the details of the baptism ceremony. Presbyterians view the whole church as the godparent but it’s fine if you wish to select godparents for your child. We encourage you to invite them to the service and have them stand with you.

A good marriage begins on the foundation of Jesus Christ (Matthew 7:24-25). As a husband and a wife each grow closer to Jesus, they also grow closer to one another. For this reason, we feel it is crucial for a couple to receive the love, support and encouragement of a church family that will help them grow closer to the Lord. That’s why we ask couples to first commit to being part of the Woodside community. After taking the Putting Down Roots Class and joining Woodside, the bride and groom can select the day for the wedding by calling the church office (215-493-4145). The pastor performing the wedding will contact you directly.

To learn how Woodside can help you follow Jesus and receive spiritual strength, attend The Way - a four-week dinner and discussion group. It will help you to make friends and start or restart your journey with Jesus. The next session begins March 11, 2020.
