Our daily prayer services are an annual meditation during the Lenten season at First Presbyterian Church of Allentown. The services are originally posted as 2-8 minute video on our YouTube and Facebook pages. Each of the 40 days has a question for reflection followed by a prayer. By lifting up our stories, our entire community of faith get to better know our people. Our 2025 Lenten Theme is "Everything [in] Between: Meeting God in the Midst of Extremes" from A Sanctified Art.

    What feels full of life, hope, and vibrancy in your faith community or personal life? Let's take a moment to pause and reflect with Beth Sarmir for our daily prayer service for Saturday April 4, 2026. Following our theme "Tell Me Something Good" (inspired by A Sanctified Art), we reflect together as we await the joy of Easter Sunday. Join us this Sunday as we celebrate the resurrection of Christ. Our contemporary service will meet at 8:45 in our Fellowship Hall, and our more traditional service at 11:00am in the Sanctuary. Additionally, we offer an Arabic language service at 9:50am in our chapel, as well as a Chin/Burmese service at 12:30. Visit fpcallentown.org/sunday-worship for more details.
