The Church of Philadelphia

About this church

The Church of Philadelphia gathers at 1606 Barlow Street in Traverse City for the Lord’s Service Sunday at 10:00 a.m. The congregation calls its service covenant-renewal worship and centers the gathering on both Word and Sacrament. First-time guests are specifically directed to read the church’s Communion guidance before partaking at the Lord’s Table, a useful detail for anyone planning a visit rather than simply viewing the time online.

Its worship follows a deliberate biblical sequence: God calls the congregation, worshipers confess sin, Scripture is proclaimed, the Lord’s Supper is celebrated, and the people are sent with a blessing. The church teaches from a confessional Reformed perspective and publishes the Westminster Confession, Belgic Confession, Scots Confession, Heidelberg Catechism, historic creeds, and other doctrinal standards it uses for accountability. That makes this listing especially helpful for visitors who care about theology and liturgical structure. Expect a service shaped by corporate prayer, confession, preaching, Communion, and blessing rather than an event-driven format, and review the official visitor material for its Lord’s Table expectations before attending.
