Bryn Athyn Cathedral

About this church

Bryn Athyn Cathedral is the central worship setting of Bryn Athyn Church and a gathering place for New Church members from around the world. Rather than offering one uniform Sunday service, the church provides distinct gatherings for young children, families, informal all-ages worship, and adults. Settings range from short child-focused songs and teaching to formal organ-led worship with hymns, choir, and meditative preludes.

The young children’s service begins Sunday at 9:30 a.m. in the Cathedral undercroft or outdoors and lasts about fifteen to twenty minutes. A family service also begins at 9:30 in the Cathedral nave. Informal family worship starts at 10:15 in Asplundh Assembly Hall at 600 Tomlinson Road, not inside the Cathedral, and concludes around 11:00; a Zoom discussion follows at 11:30. Formal adult worship begins at 11:00 in the nave, with organ preludes from 10:40. On designated Community Worship Sundays, these separate gatherings are replaced by one 10:00 a.m. service, so visitors should check the dated calendar. Hearing-loop and radio-based assisted-listening systems are available in the nave. Parking guidance differs by gathering, particularly for the undercroft, making the individual service page useful before arrival.
