Relevant to real life
Church ends. Beach begins.
Every summer Sunday, when the service wraps up, some of us head straight to the shore. No agenda, no schedule — just waves, conversation, and the kind of easy fellowship that’s hard to find. It’s also where we celebrate baptisms each year, with the whole family cheering from the sand.
Life happens between Sundays
We love to get together! Here are our regular events:
Bible Study
Wednesdays 1pm in the Seaview “Living Room”
Small Group
Taking a break for the summer!
Ladies Lunch
A monthly gathering at a local restaurant.
Men’s Ministry
A monthly outdoor gathering at the fire pit.
Pastor Mark Larimer
Mark brings 30+ years of ministry experience and a gift for preaching Scripture in a way that connects to real, everyday life. Originally from Bethlehem, PA, he’s now fully Jersey Shore.
When he’s not at church, you’ll likely find him taking morning walks on the Ocean City boardwalk with his wife, Susan, cheering on his son Jackson to “go higher!” at his pole vaulting meets, enjoying conversations with his daughter Emma, or catching a Steelers, Pirates, or Penguins game (his Pittsburgh roots run deep!).
