Even though bicycles are everywhere, they aren’t in the hands of those who need them the most. “For at-risk families, refugees, and homeless, bicycles are commonly the only way to get around. Whether we are locating bicycles, repairing them, or handing out bicycles, we always do it with a serving heart.”

A Word From Apostle Rick Vincent Avalanche
“… I know. I feel a shaking on the mountain …. Hebrews 12:26-27 comes to mind. ‘Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven. ‘ Now this, ‘Yet once more,’ indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain. “

Heaven’s Thunder Band – Worship Leaders

Deeply rooted in the classic/southern rock genre with more than a hint of contemporary worship tossed in, the Heaven’s Thunder Band found influences from groups like: Third Day, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Jesus Culture, and Casting Crowns. Their blend of guitars and keyboards, sitting on top of a solid foundation of heavy bass and hard-driving drums, sets the stage for a positive message evoked through their vocals.

The Heaven’s Thunder Band appears at venues ranging from community block-parties to Faith & Family events. They are also regulars at Large Church Worship events, and local sports stadiums where they perform at faith-based programs. Last year they appeared at the Reading Fightins, the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs, the Philadelphia SOUL, the Reading Royals and everything in between. In recent years, the award winning group accepted invitations to play at multiple “Battle of the Bands.” They were also nominated for “Best Christian Classic Rock Band.” The Heaven’s Thunder Band will take you for a ride. The only question is, “Where will the ride take you?”

At 7:00 a.m. on Sunday, April 20, 2025, members of Berks and Montgomery Counties’ community will gather outdoors, under an empty cross for Sonrise Over Laurel Mountain, Easter Sunrise Service to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Every year worshipers of all ages, races, and backgrounds gather in unity to celebrate, worship, and pray as the sun peeks over the nearby hills.
The interdenominational Easter Sunrise Service is an annual event, now in its fifth year, is hosted by Laurel Mountain Ministries of Boyertown, Pennsylvania. The outdoor service, originally organized as a way for the community to safely worship together in the aftermath of the COVID Pandemic, grew into an exciting annual event drawing worshippers from as far away as Reading and Souderton.
The service is held rain or shine. If the weather threatens the musical instruments or if they can’t be kept in tune because of temperature, the musical worship will be held in the campus chapel. At its conclusion, attendees walk across the lawn and gather under the empty Crosses of Calvary on Laurel Mountain for the message.

This year, Chaplain Mark Malizzi, Laurel Mountain Ministries’ Director of Ministries is the featured speaker. When asked about the theme of the service, Chaplain Mark stated that his focus will be directly from the scripture, “Why seek the living among the dead.”
Again this year, Heaven’s Thunder Band, a 2025 nominee for Best Christian Artist/Band by the Central Pennsylvania Music Awards, will lead the contemporary early morning worship on the Mountain. The team spokesman told us that they “always enjoys participating in special moments on the Mountain, especially when the Holy Spirit meets us personally.”

The American Heritage Girls Camp on the Mountain
The Laurel Mountain Ministry’s Campus evolved from a campground built on a rocky, wooded mountain to give center city kids a safe and fun place to go and grow their relationship with God. Laurel Mountain Ministries loves returning to its roots as we welcome back The American Heritage Girls for a weekend of fun and spiritual encouragement.
Changing Girls’ Lives and Leading Them Towards a More Christ-Centered Life.
American Heritage Girls (AHG) was founded by a group of parents wanting a faith-based, scout-type character development program for their daughters in 1995. The AHG Program is dedicated to the mission of building women of integrity through service to God, family, community and country. AHG girls across the nation and the globe participate in badge programs, service projects, leadership opportunities, and outdoor experiences, all with an emphasis on Christian values and family involvement.
Today there are Troops in every state and in 15 countries around the world through. A variety of Christian denominations are also represented as Charter Organizations for Troops. There are thousands of volunteer members across the country helping girls to grow in their faith, cultivate a heart for service, enjoy the great outdoors, and have more fun than they can imagine!
Girls, welcome back to the Mountain!

Gethsemane Church of Pottstown Picnic and Worship on the Mountain
2025-06-21 | Laurel Mountain Ministries, 27 Chapel Lane, Boyertown, PA, 19512, United States
A Day of Fellowship, Love, and Life-Changing Transformation
Laurel Mountain Ministries is honored to welcome Gethsemane Church of Pottstown as they take over the Mountain for a powerful day of fellowship, worship, and baptism on Saturday, June 21.

The day begins under the pavilion with a church-wide picnic, a time of food, laughter, and love in the heart of God’s creation. Then, at 11:00 AM, the congregation will gather at our unique cross-shaped baptismal pool to celebrate believers’ baptism, a public declaration of new life in Christ.

But this day is about more than just food and sunshine. It’s about transformation.

That’s Gethsemane Church’s story too. They’ve walked through the press. They’ve known the pressure. And by God’s grace, They’ve seen Him bring out the best in us. Are you hungry for more? Do you long to see what God could do with your life if you gave Him everything?

Water Baptism on the Mountain
2025-06-21 13:00 - 14:30 | Laurel Mountain Ministries, 27 Chapel Lane, Boyertown, PA, 19512, United States
An Invitation to Be Baptized on Holy Ground
Join us on Saturday, June 21, 2025, at 1:00 PM for a special Water Baptism on the Mountain, a public declaration of faith held in the peaceful, prayer-soaked setting of Laurel Mountain Ministries. Whether you’re being baptized or coming to support someone who is, this will be a moment of eternal significance.

We’ll gather at our striking cross-shaped baptismal pool, surrounded by God’s creation and a community of believers, to witness lives being transformed by the love of Christ. This is more than a ceremony—it’s a testimony to resurrection power and the goodness of God.
Why Baptism?
Jesus commanded His followers to be baptized, not as a formality, but as a visible witness of an invisible transformation. Baptism does not save, but it boldly declares what has already taken place in the heart: repentance, faith, and new life in Christ.

At Laurel Mountain, we baptize by immersion—believing this best represents the biblical model. As participants go under the water, they identify with Jesus’ death and burial; as they rise again, they testify to His resurrection and their own rebirth. It is a picture of grace, a step of obedience, and a beautiful act of worship.
What to Expect and How to Prepare
If you feel led to be baptized, we invite you to prepare your heart and register in advance. On the day of the event, please arrive by 12:45 PM at the pavilion for orientation and prayer. Wear modest swimwear under clothes you don’t mind getting wet, and bring a towel and a change of clothes.

We’ve created a helpful guide for spiritual and practical preparation. Visit our Water Baptism Page to read FAQs and find everything you need to take this next step with confidence.
A Celebration of Faith and Family
Water Baptism on the Mountain is open to all who profess faith in Jesus Christ—whether you’re part of a church group or coming as an individual. You’ll be surrounded by fellow believers, family, and friends, cheering you on as you take this sacred step.

Even if you’re not being baptized, we invite you to come witness what God is doing. It’s a day of rejoicing and renewal that will bless everyone present.
Questions? We’re Here for You
If you have questions about baptism, need help preparing, or just want to talk to someone about your faith journey, we’re here for you. Call us at (484) 877‑2567 or email info@laurelmountainministries.org.
Let June 21 be your day to say, “I’ve decided to follow Jesus.”We can’t wait to meet you on the Mountain.
