Zion’s Union Church Maxatawny has a rich history that goes back to our founding in 1826 and we are proud of all that has happened in the past. In November 2013 we entered into a new phase of our history when the ELCA and UCC congregations voted to become one, known as a federated church. Each member now has dual membership in both the wider churches, further emphasizing our Union history as we move forward known simply as Christians. In January 2024, we turned a new page in our church history by calling
The Rev. Melissa A. Burhart as our shepherd and teacher.
We work together as a group of people who love the Lord by providing programs and activities for all ages. Our Youth Group is very active with a balance of entertaining activities, community outreach, and educational events. One of our popular community activities is a “Live Nativity” that both youth and adults take part in at Christmas. There are social groups for both men and women offering the opportunity for Bible Study, service, and socialization. Both youth and adults take part in many outreach ministries such as serving meals at Opportunity House in Reading and supporting Friend, Inc. in Kutztown.
Adults and seniors are offered an opportunity to gather one a month to play cards, intended to provide for mind development and fun. The Senior Ministry Group is responsible for a popular newsletter article, The Mystery Senior, with a brief bio so members can identify the person described. This group also sends greeting cards to senior members on memorable occasions and sends a series of four grief booklets to recently bereaved members.
This is just a sampling of the activity inside the church that is highly visible from route 222. Zion’s Union Church is a beacon on the hillside in Maxatawny Township. Visitors are always welcome. With God’s help we will continue to be “Energized by the Spirit, Humbled by God’s Grace, and Working for God’s Glory.”
