Join us on April 4th for the Mt. Salem in Rockford Park - Jesus 5K.

Mt. Salem Church grew out of a community Sunday School movement. Before any public schools, starting in 1814 or 1815, the Brandywine Manufacturers’ Sunday School program of reading, writing, and ciphering along with Bible lessons was first conducted on the floor of a mill and then in its own building at the DuPont Powder Works. As public education became available the Brandywine Manufacturer’s Sunday School evolved into four Christian congregations. In 1841, St. Joseph on the Brandywine Roman Catholic Church (President Biden’s Church) was formed, dropping out of the Sunday School. Mt. Salem Methodist Church was founded in 1847, leaving the Sunday School movement. In 1851, a third group withdrew from the Sunday School to organize the Greenhill Presbyterian Church. Finally, in 1856, the Brandywine Manufacturers’ Sunday School closed as Christ Episcopal Church opened for its people.

    Join us for our annual UPD 5K.

    This race benefits Ulster Project Delaware (UPD). UPD was founded in 1976 as a program to build understanding between Northern Irish Catholic and Protestant teenagers. Each July, the project brings a group of teenagers between the ages of 14 and 16, half Catholic, half Protestant, and half girls, half boys, to the Wilmington area where they live with host teenagers and their families for four weeks. During that month, the teens participate in a variety of team building, social, sightseeing, spiritual and service activities that enable them to create enduring friendships and mutual understanding.
