Join us for VBS Sunday Worship! We will celebrate a faith and fun filled week of Camp Firelight at Temple Lutheran Church. Children from TLC and the community came to sing, craft, learn about our mission project, and worship together!  

On Sunday, we will have songs from VBS and after worship we'll all meet around the campfire for s'mores!

​

VBS Offering:  Our Mission Project this year was to raise money to make Essential Backpacks for low-income scout troops in the greater Philadelphia area.  The children this week have been bringing in coins and dollars. If you would like to help with this mission, please make note with your gift. The campers are learning that every little bit helps!

Red Cross Blood Drive at Temple Lutheran Church on September 12, 2024 and November 11, 2024 from 2:30-7:30 pm.  Sign up today!

Temple Lutheran Church has chosen to raise funds for the Tatarchuk-Gadzhaman family who recently moved to Havertown from war-torn Ukraine. Olga and Alex are trying to bring Olga's parents, Igor and Elena, safely to the United States so that her three young children can be reunited with their grandparents.

100% of everything donated will go towards getting them set up with an apartment while they learn English and look for jobs in the U.S.

Wednesday, July 28, 2021 Temple Lutheran, Havertown, cut the ribbon on a new 44kW solar array, installed with the help of Solarize DelCo, an all volunteer program of neighbors helping neighbors to go solar. The electricity produced by the panels is enough to offset 100 percent of Temple's annual electricity usage and eliminate 24 tons of carbon emissions each year. (Photo by Rev. Matt Staniz)

Looking for some new Dinner time recipes?

Then Foods for Fords is for you! It’s a 53 page cookbook compiled by Jonah Sun, an amazing Haverford High School student, as a fundraiser for our TLC Food Pantry. For more info, check out his video on Temple's Facebook page as it tells the story of the cookbook's creation and the Pantry.

Altar flowers are a great way to beautify the sanctuary and remind your fellow worshipers of the new life that Jesus brings. They are also a great way to commemorate an event near a specific date, or honor/remember someone close to your heart.  You can now sponsor altar flowers for a specific week.

To sponsor contact the church office by email, or click here.

If you missed church on Sunday October 23, you may have not heard the big news ! There was a celebratory announcement with confetti and all when the screen lit up with Generation to Generation pledges totaling $258,161!

Thank you to everyone who has contributed and pledged (mission partners, friends, and community)!  The search is on for a Children, Youth, and Family Minister!

Thanks be to God!

Live Generously!

On September 18th, Rally Day was held at Temple Lutheran Church. This celebrates the start of the church calendar year and marks the beginning of many of our ministries here at TLC.

This year's carnival had games and activities where children could win tickets.

Pastor Tim heard there was a need for school supplies by Child Guidance Resource Center for a fair they hold to make sure children in need have these items for the start of school.

Thanks to an anonymous donor, Thrivent Financial, and the attendees of our carnival, Pastor Tim delivered pens, pencils, glue, notebooks, folders and more!
