We are so glad that you have chosen to learn a little more about us. You may be wondering, "Who are the people of Morning Star Fellowship?" We are the result of much prayer and planning with the intent to plant an exciting, relevant church in Quakertown. Morning Star Fellowship in Quakertown has been "mothered" by Morning Star Fellowship in Bechtelsville, PA., a congregation of about 1,100 pastored by Steve and Liz DeFrain. Both churches are part of the Assemblies of God. For more information on Morning Star Fellowship in Bechtelsville, you can go to mstar.org on the web. 

In September 2004 we officially started meeting together as a church body. You will find our services a little more casual. Our music is upbeat, kids are a priority, and the messages are relevant and meaningful. 

Our intent is not to grow by programs, but by growing healthy people based upon five purposes. These purposes are outreach, worship, fellowship, discipleship, and service. We believe that if we stay within these basics, we can reach many for Christ and at the same time remain a balanced ministry. 

Finding a church home is one of the most important things you can do. In a society where people are often separated from family and friends, where isolation is becoming the rule rather than the exception, it's nice to know that there's a place you can be loved, accepted, and forgiven; where you can receive God's help as well as be a helper; where people are important and involved in making a difference in our world; where you can feel at home. You are cordially invited to visit and see if this is the place for you.

My wife Theresa and I have been in the ministry for 29 years. In the '80s we were in youth ministry, then for 10 1/2 years we pastored in southeastern Lancaster County. We believe that God has brought us to the Quakertown area to serve this community. We look forward to getting to know you, your families, and our new community. 

Thanks for coming!

Pastor John and Theresa Decker
