Peace Church & St. Peter's Church jobs

Peace Church is in a small, family-oriented town. St. Peter's church is in a rural settling. Nearby there are farms and woodlands. Everyone knows their neighbors, and neighbors help each other when needed. We live among Amish in our community too, and occasionally Amish participate in our activities. Our church family is considered to be an extension of our actual families.

We are part of the United Church of Christ which has significant diversity among churches. The autonomy of the United Church of Christ allows us to be more conservative than progressive churches within the denomination. When describing the United Church of Christ, someone recently said, "if you have been to one UCC church, you've been to one UCC church." This is because no two churches are the same. While we may be more conservative than other churches in our denomination, we extend an extravagant welcome to anyone who wishes to worship with us no matter where they are on their faith journey.

The churches are in a rural area, and shopping centers, hospitals, universities, museums, sports venues, and amusement parks are within a 45-minute drive, and Wal-Mart is less than 10 minutes away. There are manufacturing jobs available within a ten-minute drive, and there are all types of jobs within a 45-minute drive to Harrisburg. The schools are smaller, so students receive more attention.
