Types of churches in Finleyville

Catholic Churches in Finleyville

Long-established Catholic parishes anchor worship near the borough center and along Route 88, drawing families from Finleyville and surrounding Union and Nottingham townships. Expect sacramental life, traditional Mass schedules, and community events that fit local rhythms, from Lenten fish fries to seasonal festivals supporting neighborhood ministries.

Finleyville Non-Denominational Churches

Independent congregations around the Route 88/Library Road corridor and near the South Park border tend to offer casual services, modern music, and practical teaching. Many gather midweek in home-based small groups across the Peters Creek valley and organize service projects in parks and along nearby trails such as Mingo Creek and the Montour/Arrowhead connectors.

Historic & Liturgical Congregations

Older Protestant and liturgical traditions are preserved in sanctuaries with stained glass and bell towers near Washington Avenue and the trolley-era streets that trace Route 88. Services often feature organ-led hymns, creeds, and set prayers, appealing to long-time Mon Valley families who value reverence and the church calendar.

Rural Country Chapels

In the hills stretching toward Gastonville and deeper into Union Township, small chapels offer close-knit community and straightforward preaching. These congregations frequently host potlucks and clothing drives and support neighbors who work in the trades or commute to Bethel Park and river towns in the Mon Valley.

#BoldForChrist
“``If people are coming for you because you're living like Christ, praise God that you bear that name. If people are calling you out online because you are living like Christ, praise God that you bear that name. It doesn't matter what politically they say or what culturally they say about the name of Jesus or being a Christian, we're supposed to stand up and say, yeah, I proclaim the name of Christ. And I do it proudly, and I do it boldly, regardless of what the culture thinks, regardless of what the government thinks, regardless about and I get this a lot because there are people like, you're not supposed to talk about certain things from the pulpit. You're not supposed to talk about politics. You're not supposed to talk about this. And I'm just reading literally what the bible says.”
47s
#ChristAbovePolitics
“We are supposed to still hey, I don't care what you guys think. We're supposed to boldly proclaim the name of Christ. So when people it comes to being called a Christian, there should be visible evidence of living for Christ, and it should be regardless of political or cultural opinions. Doesn't matter what the culture thinks. Doesn't matter what your coworkers think. Doesn't matter what your family or friends think. Doesn't matter what people who think, oh, you're supposed to be in this political party, that's supposed to be up here. Had someone tell me the other day that, oh, you're probably one of those people who puts Christ above this or that, and I'm like, abso freaking lutely, yeah, I do. That that's what I'm called to do. That's the way I'm called to live my life.”

#PraiseInPersecution
“And he says, if if you suffer, and it's specifically at the hands of the government, it should not be as a murderer or a thief or any other kind of criminal or as a memoir. If the government's gonna arrest me, it shouldn't be for stealing. It shouldn't be for killing someone. If they're gonna arrest me and they're doing it for people who proclaim the name of Christ, that's what it should be for any sense. However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name.”
35s
#AntiochWitness
“He's like, look at this God honoring thing that happened. Look at this God honoring thing that happened. Look at this God honoring thing that happened. And because of it, the disciples were called Christians first at Antoniac. God's hand was on the city. There was some visible evidence of God's grace in the third largest city in the Roman Empire. There was exponential growth and solid biblical teaching, and then Luke looks at all that and says, and the disciples, because of these things, were first called Christians at Antioch.”
63s
#SameSpiritSameValue
“And then I remembered what the Lord had said, John baptized his father, but you will be baptized with the holy spirit. That's actually acts one five before Jesus goes into acts one eight where he says, you're gonna be my witnesses. And this is the statement where we all need to have a little bit of Peter in us because he says, so if God gave them the same gift he gave us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I to think that I could stand in God's way? If God gave to someone of a different color than you, the same holy spirit that he gave you, who are you to stand in his way? If God gives to someone who voted differently than you, the same holy spirit that he gave you, who were you to stand in his way? And when they heard this, they had no further objections, and they praised God saying, so then even the Gentiles, God has granted repentance that leads to life.”
58s
#GodAcceptsAll
“this this this needs to be like repeated multiple times. That God accepts every single person. I keep hearing people tell me, oh, I I don't like you Christians because you're so narrow and you're so exclusive, you exclude anybody, but it's not true. God accepts anyone from any community, from any school district, from any color, from any nation. It doesn't matter what you did wrong. It doesn't matter how bad you've been. None of that matters. God says, hey, I want you God said, hey, you know what, Philip? I need you to go make another massive mile walk from where you are back down to go talk to this Ethiopian eunuch. One person. Imagine if God said, hey, I need you to get in your car, take this eight hour drive, so you can go tell this one person, hey, God wants you to be a part of his family.”
49s
#GospelUnites
“```But the gospel unites us in spite of what we divide over. And so Peter explains to them what happened. He tells them the whole story. Here's what happened to me. I had this vision. Cornelius had this vision. So I did what God told me to do. I went and he shares, as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came on them as he had come on us at the beginning. He shares a perspective that the Jewish believers that were with him had to experience. That God looked at them the same way he looked at us. God poured his holy spirit out on us. God poured his holy spirit out on them.”
47s
#PartnerAcrossDifferences
“And this is where we need to all be a little bit like Peter. Because we all have, and I'm not pointing any fingers because I have it too. We all have those people that we like, I don't want to associate with them. I don't have time for them. I don't want to deal with them. And God says, but I gave my Holy Spirit to them, and they are no longer people that you should look at and think I can associate with them. They are people that we have to look at and say, we're supposed to partner with them to share the gospel, because now they have the same purpose and mission that we have. To tell the world that there is a God who loves them.”
75s
“the Jews were now doing to Paul what Paul had done to Christians. Right? Paul, according to the Jewish Old Testament, said, hey. You're blaspheming the name of God, so you should be killed because blasphemy was punishable by death. Now Paul was preaching the name of Jesus as God, so the Jews said, hey. You're blaspheming the name of God, so you need to be punishable or punished by death as well. So here's the thing, Matt. I I need I need to point this out because and I'm not trying to justify this, but they thought, just like Paul thought, hey, I'm doing the right thing in the name of God by killing these people. They thought I'm doing the right thing in the name of God by trying to kill Paul. And there are people today who think, hey. I'm doing the right thing in the name of God by hating and by wanting to kill and wanting to demean and tear down people who don't think like me or look like me or have the same beliefs as me. But here's the thing, Christianity has no room for hating others in the name of Jesus.”
63s
“So God uses the power of the Holy Spirit, and it's throughout the Bible to point people to God, to confirm the word of God, to equip people, to tell others about God. But here's the thing. Right? In that area, what God said he wanted to happen was happening, but God said he also wants it to happen to the ends of the earth. And although, yes, this is a verse that specifically applies to them, it also applies to us because we have if you stepped across the line of faith and put your faith in Jesus Christ, you have God's holy spirit in you. That does not mean that you're gonna go heal people or raise people from the dead and do that kind of miracle to be a witness to God, but you can go help someone through the power of the holy spirit, and that's God using you to be a witness.”
