About this church
Arch Street United Methodist Church in Philadelphia gathers for worship on Sundays at 11 a.m. at 55 North Broad Street, on the corner of Broad and Arch Streets near the Pennsylvania Convention Center. The service is hybrid, so worshipers can attend in person or join online through Zoom. Holy Communion is celebrated on the first Sunday of each month, and the table is open to all. The congregation is part of the United Methodist tradition and describes itself as a reconciling, justice-seeking, sanctuary congregation.
A lunchtime Bible study meets by Zoom every Monday at noon, led by the pastor. United Women in Faith, a group for women, usually meets in the chapel on the second Sunday of the month for mission projects, book discussion, and fellowship, with a few exceptions noted on the calendar. The church also takes part in community organizing around affordable wages, housing justice, and responsible development. Baptisms, membership appointments, and classes are arranged by request through the church office. Limited street parking is available in front of the church and the neighboring Masonic Temple on Broad Street, and the building is easy to reach by public transportation.
