Directions to Church
From Philadelphia take Rte. 42 to the Atlantic City Expressway. Take Exit 2 off the Expressway. This merges into Rte. 40, 322 East. Continue on Rte. 40, past two traffic lights, until you reach Sand Castle baseball stadium this will be on your left. There is a traffic light at this corner.

Our church was incorporated in 1905. We merged with Second Church of Christ, Scientist, Atlantic City, 1958. We sold our original church edifice and property on Brighton Avenue. During the time our new church was being remodeled the Masonic Temple of Atlantic City, came to our aid and our church held services in their temple for several years, until we moved to our present location in Chelsea Heights section of Atlantic City in 1982.
