Liturgy Team
We have a team of people who lead our worship services because of our value of community. Anyone wishing to join the liturgy team, please contact Gary (gary@thewellpa.com). The liturgy team leads the call to worship, prayer time, scripture reading, prayer during communion, and the benediction during our Sunday worship.

Phil Wood Sabbatical
Phil Wood, our awesome worship leader, pastor/elder, will be taking a sabbatical this summer during June, July and August. He’s been serving for 10 years and we figured it was time he got a break.
