"My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass."
- Deuteronomy 32:2

Welcome to the Pittsburgh New Church!

Welcome to the Pittsburgh New Church, a congregation of the New Church, a new Christianity that provides a clear path to happiness. The New Church addresses your questions about God, love, and life after death with answers that make sense. The teachings are deeply spiritual AND immediately practical: it is a religion to be lived, not just believed. Here's what we're all about…

We're located in Point Breeze, in Pittsburgh's East End, near Clayton and Sterrett School. The address is 299 Le Roi Road, Pittsburgh, PA 15208.

Here's a link to a map.

The Pittsburgh Society Reunion was a great success!

It was a gathering of the Pittsburgh clan.

We held a Pittsburgh Reunion at the GC Assembly in Bryn Athyn, Pennsylvania,

on Friday, June 24th.

We hosted over 100 people who have…

• climbed in the apple tree,
• shot pellet guns in the crawlspace,
• pledged allegiance to the flag at PNCS,
• acted in Mr. Popper's Penguins,
• eaten Walt Willamson's breakfasts at May Camp,
• cooked Friday Supper on the old black stove in the kitchen,
• or plighted their troth in our beautiful sanctuary

It was really fun. Many thanks to Steve David, Jonathan Glenn, Ned Uber, Jamie Uber and many others for making it happen. Duncan Smith subbed for Larkin and led us in impromptu singing. Kurt Asplundh provided old movies from the 60's. People brought old photos and documents, and took pictures, including one of all but two of the Pittsburgh pastors still on this side of the spiritual divide. We'll post more about it when we get a chance.

Pittsburgh Society Adopts a new "Internal Sense of the Word" Web Project

Brian and Steve David are spearheading a new project to create a New Church Word-Study website, in which the internal sense of the Word is presented in a format like other Christian Bible Study websites. There have been lots of New Church sites, built for various purposes, but very few have really tried to present the internal sense to non-New Church readers. Until now! The Society's executive committee agreed to provide a home for the project while it is being incubated. Brian and Steve are working with ex-Pittsburgher Chuck Ebert, New Zealand native Ian Thompson, Andy Heilman and Roy Odhner from the Kempton Project, Rev. George McCurdy, Rev. David Lindrooth, General Church webmaster Rob Andrews and others. The project has received initial financial backing from the Glencairn Foundation.
