John Hus Holy Communion / Joyful Noise Offering / Snack & Yak

Our worship services in the summer are on Sundays at 9:30 am with Summerfest for children ages 3 through 5th grade. We encourage you to join us in person for worship, but we also live-stream our 9:30 am worship service on YouTube for those who can’t join us in person. Schoeneck will remember and honor John Hus with a service of Holy Communion on Sunday, July 5th. The service commemorates the occasion of the martyrdom of John Hus, whose teaching and preaching in the early 15th century gave rise to what is modern the Moravian Church today.

A Joyful Noise Offering takes place on the first Sunday of each month. The children present will collect loose change from the congregation. Proceeds go to Moravian Open Door, a non-profit organization committed to providing transitional housing and supportive services to those experiencing homelessness, those who are distressed, and the underserved population of New York City.

Join Us for Snack & Yak in the Fellowship Hall after our worship service for delicious snacks, beverages, and wonderful fellowship!
