Sunday Communion Worship
at Princeton Seminary Chapel
| | 10:00 AM - Worship, PTS Chapel, Livestream & In-Person | | Note on Princeton Seminary Chapel Traffic Flow | | |
We want to make you aware of a slight change to the traffic flow around the Princeton Theological Seminary Chapel due to construction on the campus. Please note the following updates for Sunday worship:
- All vehicles must enter through the Alexander Street gate only.
-
The closest drop-off point for the chapel is now a bit farther from the entrance, though still near the ramp for accessible entry.
- The Mercer Street gate will be Exit Only.
- If you park in the seminary library lot, please cross at the Mercer Street gate and use caution—vehicles may be exiting in your direction. Pedestrians should remain on the sidewalk, keeping Alexander Hall on your left, as the driveway on the opposite side is fenced off due to construction.
- There will be slightly fewer accessible parking spots available in the quad. As always, these spots are reserved for those with a Nassau-issued dashboard placard and only for those who need closer access.
| | Our Response to the Texas Flooding | | |
Catastrophic flash flooding hit central Texas over July 4–5, with over 100 lives lost and rescue efforts ongoing. Presbyterian Disaster Assistance (PDA) is working with local partners to assess needs and provide care. Donations will support relief and recovery efforts, including assessments, cleanup, and rebuilding. Donations to PDA can be made online at pda.pcusa.org.
To get help where it’s needed most, Nassau is partnering with Kerrville Presbyterian Church and will forward all donations designated for Disaster Relief – Texas Floods directly to them.
| | Give online using the link provided or by using Church Life on your phone. Checks can be mailed to 61 Nassau Street, Princeton, NJ 08542, dropped off in the drop box near the base of the ramp by the parking lot or placed in the offering plates on Sunday morning. | | To donate to a specific fund, use the drop-down menu. | | It's Hot Now - But Winter Is Coming | | |
Sundays while we’re worshipping in the PTS Chapel, front portico
While we’re all trying to stay cool, international students at Princeton Theological Seminary are preparing for their first New Jersey winter. Help us stock the PTS Coat Closet with gently used coats, fleece pullovers, and cold-weather accessories. Your summer donations ensure the closet is full before the cold arrives. Bring items to the marked box at the PTS Chapel on Sundays, or contact the church office to arrange a weekday drop-off.

School’s Out. Hunger’s Out. You Can Help!
During the summer months, when school meal programs are on pause, many local families face increased food insecurity. Arm In Arm’s Summer Hunger Relief Campaign helps bridge this gap by providing essential pantry items to those in need—especially families with children.
Most Needed Items: Rice, Peanut Butter, Pasta, Low-Sugar Cereal,
Shelf-Stable Milk.
Drop off your donations in the collection bin located near the playground at
61 Nassau Street.
Double your donation by bringing your items in a reusable shopping bag!
Volunteer Opportunities
With local college students away for the summer, Arm In Arm needs extra hands! Volunteers help with food pantry distribution, deliveries to homebound clients, and more. Whether you have a few hours once a week or once a month, your time makes a real difference.

We are organizing ushers to serve during the 9:15 & 11:00 AM worship services beginning September 7. Ushering is a terrific way to meet new people, do the important work of hospitality, and become more involved in the Nassau Church community. On Sunday mornings, we greet all who attend worship, hand out bulletins, offer support to those who need assistance, and collect the offering. Join us as we seek to offer worshippers the generosity of God’s wide welcome.
