Proclamation Presbyterian Church (PCA)

What Proclamation Presbyterian Church (PCA) does

Proclamation Presbyterian Church (PCA) is a non-profit, confessional Reformed congregation established in 1990 and operating from a single campus at 278 S. Bryn Mawr Ave, Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania. The church is affiliated with the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) denomination and is staffed by 19 employees. Its core offering is weekly liturgical worship, delivered through parallel English services (Sundays at 10:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.), a Korean-language service at 9:00 a.m. in the Beechwood Chapel, and a Japanese-language service at 10:30 a.m. in the lower-level rooms. The worship program is anchored by a 44-rank Casavant Frères pipe organ, an adult choir, a volunteer orchestra, children and handbell choirs, and an annual concert series that performs works such as Handel's Messiah and Rutter's Requiem.

Beyond worship, the church runs a suite of programs including children's ministry, youth ministry (with summer service trips to the Dominican Republic and PA Joni and Friends Family Retreat), ESL, small groups, men's and women's ministry, internship, Wednesday Family Night, Sunday School, prayer chain, and seniors' ministry. Distribution is primarily in-person, supplemented by livestreamed services and a digital sermon/media archive. The business model is donation-based: the church receives voluntary tithes and offerings from congregants through traditional means and through the Subsplash online giving platform, with no fees charged for services or programs. Notable recent organizational activity includes an active Assistant Pastor Search 2026, a posted part-time Director of Children's Music position, and the May 31, 2026 ordination and installation of Antonio Ayala.
