Hope Of Christ Presbyterian Church

"Looking forward to new Ministry and Mission."

First Presbyterian Church of Panther Valley voted to merge with the Tamaqua Presbyterian Church. Tamaqua held its last service of worship in June 4, 2007. A Commission was established which made specific decsions acting for the Presbytery about how the merger  proceeded. The merger necessitated finding a new name for the merged church.We are now  Hope of Christ Presbyterian Church!

Our merger would not have become a reality without the help of many people. We thank Lehigh Presbytery for helping us through the process. Rev. Leon Morgan who has been serving as the Moderator at First Presbyterian Church of Tamaqua was instrumental in getting all the work complete. Thank you Leon!
