Grace Presbyterian Church (PCA) in Mt. Laurel, NJ gives the following descriptive information:

We are a congregation of the Presbyterian Church in America. As a church of the Lord Jesus Christ, our faith is founded on what Jesus has said and done, which we find in the Bible. We believe a summary of that faith can essentially be found in the Westminster Confession of Faith.

Church By Phone

One uncommon feature of this congregation is its church-by-phone service, where the pulpit microphone feeds not only the loudspeakers in the sanctuary but also a phone line, so that the caller hears the entire service, both the Sunday morning and the Sunday evening. The caller needs only a phone and the number (see Info below). "Just dial and listen."

To participate further, callers with Web access can download the order of worship from the church's website. For callers without the Web, some of the essential information, e.g., hymn titles, is usually announced on the phone.

The phone option has proven useful to its originally intended beneficiaries, i.e., people who probably don't use the Web and who are stuck at home or in a care facility. But it has also, for example, been useful to people who are traveling, and it has given attenders a safe option during hazardous weather. For anyone, anywhere, who can dial the number on any sort of telephone, the option offers two weekly chances to go to church, and be counted as present, without a physical trip and without going online.
