The members of Mt. Lebanon U.P. Church are involved in a large variety of ministries throughout Pittsburgh, and supports a mission work carrying our ministry around the globe. This page attempts to partially describe the ministries that we are involved in.
ChristCare
Many of you have probably heard the name ChristCare or seen in
sporadically in the pages of the Twin Tower Light. ChristCare is
a form of small group ministry developed by the same organization that has
brought us Stephen Ministries. It is a model that we believe God is
calling us to incorporate into our ministry here at MLUPC. The groups
will consist of 3-12 people that come together to:
Learn more about God
It is time to "cast the net" broadly to discover whom God is leading into ChristCare ministries at MLUPC. Jesus taught us to step into what God is doing by looking around us to merely gather what he has already prepared for us. We believe that God is calling people now into this ministry. We want to know who you are!
Stephen Ministers are commissioned lay persons who have been trained and are supervised to develop their gifts for bringing Christ's healing love through caring for the spiritual, social and emotional needs of our community in a one-to-one private setting, on an ongoing basis.
Stephen Ministers are not professional counselors or psychologists; social workers providing physical services; experts in law, finance, church doctrine, etc.; brief superficial visitors "touching base" with people now and then.
The Stephen Ministry offers a lay caring ministry in which one person reaches out to another in time of need; a meaningful way for our church to more fully use our talents in sharing one another's burdens and joys.
All of us from time to time need someone with whom we may share our concerns and our needs, knowing that we will be listened to, understood, prayed for and encouraged, in a confidential relationship.
The Stephen Ministry program at the Mt. Lebanon United Presbyterian Church provides trained lay caregivers who seek to follow the teaching of Scripture to "bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." (Galatians 6:2)

This is our 5th year worshiping on the roof during the summer months. We just upgraded our sound system for this worship service this year. The upgrade consisted of permanently installing the electric & audio cabling and the donation of a 20 channel powered mixer. Thanks to all who made this possible
We stopped video taping the services. There was little demand for the tapes & the video equipment we had was in disrepair. We have about four years of video of the 11 AM service that are available to borrow. Contact Ed Mori through the church if you are interested in borrowing a video.
Needless to say, the people that are part of the Technology Ministry are a very important part each and every service. Their dedication and countless hours of service to our Lord is wonderful. These people are
