at PeopleFest!
Rev. Ken was all smiles and ready to welcome festivalgoers at the EUCC booth during the South Central PA PeopleFest on May 17. Hosted by the Hanover Area Diversity Alliance, this newly expanded celebration showcased our community’s rich cultural tapestry—with Highland Games, a Native American Pow Wow, music, dancing, global flavors, arts & crafts, and more. Thanks to all who stopped by to say hello!

Pet Blessings bring joy to worship
Pet Blessings during worship were a wonderful success! Eight pets—dogs, a cat, and even a bird—joined us in person on March 30, while several others were represented in photos brought by their humans. The service was a joyful celebration of our animal companions, and one youth summed it up best: “Coming to church is fun!”
