“We will miss Father ChrisMy husband graduated from St Raymond’s school in 1962 and we were married there in 1973. Father Chris is amazing, and we enjoy attending Mass online just to hear his inspiring sermons. He has done so much for the parish and it’s upsetting that church policy will not allow him to remain there. We can easily follow him to St Cecilia’s online but the local parish cannot. I know that the church community is strong and they will survive but it will not be the same without Father Chris.”

“This was our family's neighborhood Parrish church and has served us for funerals over the past several years. The priests and church staff have always been there for us in our time of grief and helped us celebrate the lives of our loved ones. They are true servants of GOD.”
“It is a supernatural experiencewhere you will find spiritual and emotional peace and a family that is willing to help you, but above all you will meet the King of Kings, the one who gave his life for our salvation.”
“I want to thank everyone at the church for giving my Aunt Debbie a beautiful send-off into Heaven. My nerves were shot already because of the fact of what was happening, traffic, everything else. But, I was treated with love, respect and an overall sense of acceptance. Thank you everyone so much for everything! Even though it was a funeral, I think everything went well and I feel so thankful for that.”

333 Preston Ave, Voorhees“A church that teaches by using the word of God, provides scripture to support the message! We have been looking for a church whose foundation is actually the word of God.”
“Beautiful church. Was there for a funeral. I was very sad though first the funeral home seemed very disorganized and the deacons seemed confused on where they should have been on altar.”
“Such an wesome place to worship. EVERYONE is TRULY welcomed and you feel that welcome by so many of the congregation. Pastor Brett always delivers such thoughtful and meaningful sermons through his careful examination and interpretation of scripture so that you feel the free and endless grace of Christ Jesus. I feel so blessed that I found POP. The peace of Christ truly dwells in this place.”
“The first thing I noticed when j walked in was how welcoming it was. There were no bogus expectations, there were no judgements, and the sermon focused on the teachings of Jesus and relationship with God.I was concerned at first that this church would not have enough conviction in the Gospel, but that is far from the case. I've never seen a church where so many of the members are involved in volunteer ministries that benefit the community.The church is very accommodating for the differently-abled, and has a diverse congregation. I'm very happy to call this group my home.”
“Its such a wonderful parish. We have been members, for many years. Since 2006, nearly 17 yrs. The priest, Fr. T. Kearns, is very nice, & knowledgeable. He will go out of his way to help you. The parish is run in a VERY family, organized manner. Fr. Brady lives in residence also, & is helpful also. Decon Mark is in charge of the CCD program, which my grandchildren attend. I highly recommend this program, along, with membership in the parish. Reach out to the rectory, & check out this wonderful, God fearing parish.. see pics from Christmas eve Mass we attended.. TY. God bless you.”
“This is my primary church. My spirit and soul is fed here each time I go. Pastor Pennock is truly a man of God. God has blessed him with the ability to make the Word understandable. I enjoy reading and learning the Word here.”
“My favorite place of worship and great biblical teaching from my Pastor Rev. Dr. Guy Campbell Jr. Please feel free to come worship with us anytime we'd love to have you.”
“This is now my home church now. I recently joined, although i had been attending for a while. A small, warm community church. Service is always good, but last Sunday Pastor Stanley Hearst, Sr. preached his socks off!!!”
“Originally, I joined this church because my husband to be, was a member. After experiencing the comfort, love and sense of family, I too became a member. We were married there, the kids received their communion and were confirmed there and now my mother is a member. It is a safe place to explore and grow in faith. Between Pastor Mike's services and Mark Dishong's music, it is the perfect place to unplug, yet recharge my spirit for the week to come. Come and be inspired, you won't be disappointed.”

I have served on various ministries and I can honestly say that my foundation in life has been set and strengthened by this family oriented church.

“I was searching for group meditation and I found it plus more! Beautiful space, warm and welcoming community, skillful teachers, satellite classes in Collingswood NJ and Bryn Mawr, retreats and workshops, and invaluable teachings by Buddha presented for the modern life. There hasn’t been one class that I have attended, where I haven’t walked away without wisdom to help train my mind for anything that life throws at me. If you are curious, do yourself a favor and drop in for a Sunday class, you will set yourself up for a much more peaceful week!”
