WELCOME
Welcome to the website for McKinley Mem Baptist Church. We invite you to check in with us from time to time for updates related to ministry activities, community events and other announcements.

We are a family-friendly community that loves God and loves people. We are conveniently located across from the Super Giant Market and a short distance from the Willow Grove SEPTA train station. Come and join us as we worship and grow in faith together.
Lent is a 40-day period starting on Ash Wednesday during which Christians prepare their hearts for Easter and draw near to God through the practices of prayer, fasting, and giving.
Prayer –. Pray daily - pray your own prayers, read the Bible or memorize scriptures, pray for others. Draw closer to Jesus every day.
Prayer is an action that helps a person turn their attention towards God, contemplate, listen and talk to him, read his words, and meditate on them.
​
Fasting - It is said that the 40 days reflect Jesus’ time of fasting and prayer in the wilderness after his baptism.
The point of sacrificing something important is to remember that God wants to be the most important aspect of our lives.
Many people sacrifice something during Lent (like coffee, sweets, or shopping) as a way to tune their hearts back to God.
Giving - Almsgiving is the practice of donating money, food, or clothing to the poor. It is a sign of gratitude for all the things that God has blessed us with. Almsgiving is an act of love towards people in need.

As a Bible-teaching church, we are dedicated to spreading the message of God’s love to everyone in our community. Our main goal is to encourage people to develop a closer relationship with God by studying the Bible and growing in their faith. Our doors are open to anyone who is seeking to learn more about God, regardless of their background or beliefs. We believe that our friendly and welcoming community will make you feel right at home.
