Our Church

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.

Our Ministries

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.

Our Outreach

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, Serving our Neighbors and Advocating for the Vulnerable. We organize around these key priorities to give full expression to God's love for the world.

Celebrate Recovery: I’m New!

Celebrate Recovery leads people to experience God’s healing power through a Christ-centered 12-step program. We meet every Monday night at 7:00 p.m. in the Worship Center at our Kennett Campus. The evening begins with live worship, followed by teaching before moving into various safe men’s and women’s open-share groups. We encourage you to stop by on any Monday night and see what we’re all about!

A Newcomer’s Group is offered for all first-time attendees. Neither The Landing for junior and high school students or Celebration Place for preschool and elementary children are meeting at the present time. Please contact us for more infomation or questions.
