A Momentous Day in Ministry — Sunday, July 6
Join us in joyful celebration as we welcome The Rev. Melissa L. Stoller, newly elected Bishop of the Southwestern Pennsylvania Synod of the ELCA, as our Guest Pastor!
Rev. Stoller made history on June 13 as the first woman elected to serve as Bishop in our Synod’s history — a milestone moment for our church and community. Her inspiring leadership and deep commitment to justice, compassion, and faith will surely enrich this special Sunday together.
Come be part of this special moment in our synod history. Expect a powerful message, warm fellowship, and the opportunity to hear from a visionary leader who has walked alongside diverse communities—from Zion Lutheran in Penn Hills to Minnesota and Russia.
Let’s warmly receive Bishop-Elect Stoller and give thanks for this spirit-led moment in our journey of faith.

Congratulations, Pastor Stoller
Congratulations, Pastor Stoller! Our newly elected bishop is a friend of this congregation and its pastor. She is currently an assistant to Bp. Kusserow and served as the pastor of Zion Lutheran Church in Penn Hills before that. We rejoice in her ministry and pray God will bless her work among us as our bishop. Pr. Stoller will assume the office of bishop in September.
You are enthusiastically invited to join us on Sunday, July 6, as we welcome Bishop-elect Stoller as our special guest pastor! It promises to be a meaningful and uplifting service—be sure to save the date!
Her installation is planned for October 18 at 1:00 – details to come but mark your calendar because you’re invited!

On Sunday, June 8th at our 10:30 am worship service, we will be celebrating Pentecost; when the Holy Spirit descended like a dove and all were who heard them heard them speak in their own native language. Our worship service will take on a unique international flavor featuring readings- read in Latvian, Swedish and Spanish – read by members of our congregation! The sanctuary will be adorned in the traditional red and we will be using hymns and other musical selections that originated from nations outside of the US. We are excited about this special worship service remembering the coming of the Holy Spirit and the celebration of a new church made up of all nations! Join in this special worship service and don’t forget to wear red!
