Encounter Church of Berks County

Welcome to Encounter Church of Berks County

Nestled in the heart of Sinking Spring, PA, Encounter Church of Berks County is a thriving, modern community where every person can experience faith in a fresh, engaging way. More than just a Sunday gathering, Encounter Church offers a variety of interactive, hands-on service formats designed to draw you into genuine moments of worship, connection, and spiritual discovery. Whether you’re brand new to church or searching for a place to grow deeper in faith, you’ll find a warm welcome and purposeful experiences here.

Interactive Service Variety

One of the hallmarks of Encounter Church is its commitment to breaking the mold of traditional services. You won’t simply sit and listen to three songs and a sermon; instead, you’ll have opportunities to serve alongside fellow attendees, share a meal together, pray as small groups, and participate in hands-on activities that bring biblical truths to life. This dynamic approach keeps worshipers engaged on multiple levels—visually, intellectually, and relationally—so that every type of learner can walk away with a tangible sense of God’s presence.

A Warm, Welcoming Community

Step through our doors and you’ll immediately sense the genuine care that defines our congregation. From the friendly greeters at the entrance to the small-group leaders who follow up after service, Encounter Church cultivates an atmosphere where strangers quickly become friends. Attendees regularly note how kindness and acceptance permeate every gathering, creating a place where you can be your authentic self, ask questions, and build lasting relationships.

Modern Worship & Music

Our worship team crafts each service with high production values and a contemporary sound that resonates with all ages. You’ll find modern worship songs that uplift your spirit, offer moments of reflection, and usher in communal praise. Paired with thoughtfully designed multimedia presentations, the music experience at Encounter Church sets a tone of heartfelt devotion and celebration, making every service memorable and spiritually enriching.

Family-Focused Experience

Families are a vital part of our identity. From toddlers to teens, children find age-appropriate programming that teaches biblical principles through stories, games, and creative projects. Parents appreciate how kids and youth leaders invest in their children’s faith journey, while teens enjoy being welcomed into the main service with meaningful roles. Shared events like Serve Sunday and communal meals around the communion table foster intergenerational bonds, helping families grow together in faith and fellowship.

Deep Spiritual Growth & Biblical Teaching

At the core of Encounter Church is a strong biblical emphasis. Each service is intentionally structured to guide you through Scripture, offering opportunities to reflect, discuss, and apply God’s Word in real life. Whether you’re looking to be stretched in your understanding or seeking fresh inspiration, our teaching team delivers relevant messages that challenge and encourage. This commitment to depth ensures that spiritual growth isn’t an afterthought—it’s woven into every encounter.

Engaging for Every Learning Style

We recognize that people absorb and process information differently. That’s why Encounter Church offers multiple avenues for engagement: interactive group discussions, visual storytelling, hands-on activities, and reflective prayer stations. Attendees with ADHD and other diverse learning profiles frequently praise our approach, noting how this variety makes it easier to stay focused and truly experience each element of worship and teaching.

Inspiring Pastoral Leadership

Pastor Greg brings heartfelt authenticity and biblical insight to every sermon. His on-point preaching style weaves together Scripture, personal stories, and practical application in a way that resonates long after the service ends. Whether you’re wrestling with life’s challenges or celebrating a breakthrough, Pastor Greg’s messages offer direction, encouragement, and a reminder of God’s faithfulness—even when growth requires stepping outside your comfort zone.

Special Moments: Shared Communion, Serve Sundays & More

Encounter Church is known for several standout practices that deepen our communal faith experience:

• Shared Communion Meal: Instead of a quick pass-around of the elements, we gather around tables to break bread together, creating space for personal reflection, dialogue, and moments of divine encounter.
• Serve Sunday: One Sunday each month, we dedicate part of our service to serving local charities and neighbors in need, living out our faith in tangible, community-impacting ways.
• Worship and Prayer Nights: These dedicated evenings of extended worship and prayer draw families, singles, and groups alike, offering powerful times of corporate intercession and spiritual refreshment.
