Visiting Us
Visitors are always welcome at Overbrook Presbyterian Church. Come join us for worship, or for any of our programs or activities. We would love to meet you, and get to know you.

Overbrook is located in the city of Philadelphia at the intersection of City and Lancaster Avenues (Routes 1 and 30), at 6376 City Avenue. It is easily accessible from the Schuylkill Expressway (3.5 miles), and from the Blue Route (6.5 miles on Route 1, or 6.9 miles on Route 30). The church is just one block west of the Overbrook SEPTA Station, served by Regional Rail.

Parking
Overbrook has a large parking lot adjacent to the church, with space for about 75 vehicles. In addition, some on-street parking is available on Lancaster Avenue. If you have difficulty finding a spot, overflow parking is also available across City Avenue, at Palmer Theological Seminary in their West Lot. This lot is located just off Lancaster Avenue near the entrance to Lankenau Hospital. It is a short five minute walk from there to the Sanctuary. Please make sure not to park in the North, Central, or South Lots at the seminary. Other nearby parking may be found in the Overbrook train station parking lot, at the corner of City Avenue and 63rd Street, also about a five minute walk from the church.
Accessibility
Our entire first floor—including Sanctuary, Chapel, Fellowship Hall, Wistar Morris Room, Williamson Room, Choral Room, Church Office, Kitchen, and restrooms—is fully accessible to those in wheelchairs, thanks to a ramp on the Lancaster Avenue side of the building, and a wheelchair lift at the Chapel entrance. Several parking spaces close to the entrance are designated for those with handicap permits.
Childcare
Childcare for infants and toddlers is provided on Sunday mornings in the Nursery, located on the main floor near the front entrance to the Sanctuary. The Nursery is supervised by a staff of three paid care-givers.
