The Presbytery of Philadelphia celebrated its 300th anniversary last weekend, welcoming 2,000 worshipers to a special Saturday service in North Philadelphia.
Presbytery officials, national leaders of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), the mayor of Philadelphia, and members of the presbytery’s 124 congregations were among those who gathered inside Enon Tabernacle Baptist Church, an historic congregation new to many attending. A presence in Philadelphia since 1876, Enon opened its expansive main sanctuary and meeting hall to the presbytery for the day.
