Saturday Women’s Workshop

Join us for our women's fall workshop, Hospitality and the Gospel: The Biblical Foundation for Welcome, Friendship, and Community!

Join us as we explore God's design for hospitality in Scripture, hear examples from women serving in different contexts, and work together to consider practical ways to welcome others as we ourselves have been welcomed by Christ.

College Retreat

How do we bear witness to Christ in a world that does not want to hear? Paul reminds us that "we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing" (2 Cor. 2:15). At this year's fall retreat, we'll consider what it means to witness in word and deed: to speak the truth with gentleness, to adorn the doctrine of God our Savior with our lives, and to leave the outcome in His hands. Come ready for rich teaching, deep fellowship, and a weekend set apart to grow as witnesses of the light we have received.

All undergraduate students and college-aged individuals are welcome to register.

SCHEDULE:

  • Friday, September 4 – 5:00 PM – Depart Tenth
  • Sunday, September 6 – 10:00 AM – Depart for worship at the First Presbyterian Church of Ocean City (PCA), 701 Wesley Avenue, Ocean City, NJ 08226

Congregational Meeting

By / Friday, December 4 at 6pm – 10pm

Stated Congregational Meeting

The annual meeting of the Congregation of Tenth Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, and the Corporation of Tenth Presbyterian Church, is called for Friday, December 4, 2026, for the following purposes:

  • Adoption of the annual congregational budget
  • Election of deacons
  • Approval of proposed congregational bylaws amendments
  • Transaction of any other business properly coming before the meeting

A draft of the packet including the nominees and bylaw proposals is available to members here.

A congregational forum about the proposed bylaw amendments will take place, Lord willing, on Sunday, November 15, after the 11:00 a.m. service. Additionally, there will be a forum on the budget on November 22 after the 11:00 a.m. service.
 
As noted in our by-laws, the agenda for our congregational meeting includes “the transaction of any business properly coming before such meeting.” There will be an agenda item for new business, where members may present new motions. However, this section will occur at the end of the meeting, and time may be limited. Also, to keep things orderly and timely, please contact Pastor Brock at [email protected] (assistant to the moderator) before November 24, to discuss any motion you would like to make. If the motion is appropriate for the meeting, it may be included in the stated agenda. Taking this option, can help to ensure you have a guaranteed time slot to present your motion, and it will help the meeting proceed in an orderly and structured fashion. 
 
A finalized agenda for the meeting will be distributed during Thanksgiving week.

The meeting of the Congregation and Corporation of Tenth Presbyterian Church will begin on Friday, December 4, at 7pm (with refreshments served in Reception Hall from 6pm).
