The Philadelphia Prophet

The Philadelphia Prophet is our parish newsletter and a ministry of Philadelphia Evangelical Lutheran Church. It is published bi-monthly following the major Seasons of the Church Year. Our goal is to offer not only helpful information regarding ministries and events but also to serve as a connection to and source of biblical, theological and educational items of substance that can help nurture and foster healthy growth and maturity in spiritual formation.
