Our Church
Sunday mornings are a time to gather at the Lykens United Methodist Church. We gather as a community of believers, of all ages, to hear God's Word, sing God's praises, and fellowship with one another.
Our worship service combines traditional hymns, contemporary songs, the joyful ringing of bell choir, children's and adult choirs, as well as relevant preaching from both the Old and New Testaments.
We have two worship services, 8:00 am and 10:10 am. The 9:00 hour is devoted to spiritual growth through age appropriate Sunday school classes. Classes are available beginning with nursery aged children and continues through mature adults.
Our History
The Lykens United Methodist Church is a result of the combination of three congregations. Theological traditions steeped in the Protestant Reformation and Wesleyanism, similar ecclesiastical structures, and relationships that dated back almost two hundred years facilitated the union. In the Evangelical United Brethren heritage, for example, Philip William Otterbein, the principal founder of the United Brethren in Christ, assisted in the ordination of Francis Asbury to the superintendency of American Methodist work. Jacob Albright, through whose religious experience and leadership the Evangelical Association was begun, was nurtured in a Methodist class meeting following his conversion.
