Willowdale Chapel is a nondenominational church founded in 1956. From our humble roots, we've grown to be a thriving body of 1,500 people. Today we are one church in two locations, with campuses in Kennett Square and Jennersville. We're passionate about Jesus and his Gospel, which offers the grace we all need every day. Whether they're longtime followers of Christ or just trying to figure it out for the first time, we love meeting people where they are and helping them grow in their faith.
We have all the core ministries that most churches have — children, youth and adult small groups — along with some "specialty" ministries that meet particular needs we sometimes face. Three of those — Celebrate Recovery, Re|engage (marriage) and Special Needs — offer distinctive help for some during the biggest challenges of their lives.
God intends to make all things new. That's why he sends us into the world with a gospel that touches—and begins to transform—all of life. Thus our Outreach Ministries are built on three pillars: Gospel Proclamation, Justice & Mercy, and Cultural Engagement. We organize around these key priorities to give full expression to God's love for the world.
Welcome to Willowdale. We’re glad you found us and hope you’ll check us out. As a church we believe our mission is to love God, love each other and love the world that Jesus, through his people, is working to restore. Our mission drives everything we do from how we worship together on a Sunday to the ministry work we do both inside and outside the church.
Leadership is basic to being a human being created in God’s image and given dominion over the planet. But how are we supposed to lead? Join us as we begin our new sermon series: Gospel-Shaped Leader.
Our NextGen student and kids ministry team have developed a unique Sunday morning program for the summer for our Willowdale kids (Kindergarten – 56ers) starting June 18!
Baptism is the one rite of passage that Jesus requires of every true believer. If you haven’t been baptized, as a believer, we invite you to take the plunge and signify your faith in Jesus. Our next Baptism Sunday will be June 18.
We are made to bring glory to God and called to be disciples who make disciples. One way we pursue and live out our discipleship is by serving. No matter your age or stage there is a way and a place to serve at Willowdale.
As a church, not only are we serving one another in tangible ways, but we are praying for one another daily. Please share your prayer requests.
