A Church for Everyone. A Family for Life.

Springfield Bible Church is a friendly, caring community of believers located at 1905 Pleasant View Rd in Coopersburg, Pennsylvania. We’re a Bible-believing church where the truth of God’s Word is preached every Sunday, real relationships are built, and every person is genuinely welcomed — no matter where they are on their faith journey.

We serve families throughout Springfield Township, Coopersburg, Hellertown, Quakertown, and the surrounding Lehigh Valley area. If you’re looking for a church in the Coopersburg area that feels like family, we’d love for you to join us.

We’re not a large, anonymous congregation. We’re a small church with a big heart — the kind of place where people know your name, walk through life together, and genuinely look out for one another.

What Defines Us

Faith. Community. Family.

Rooted in
God’s Word

The Bible is the foundation of everything we do at Springfield Bible Church. Every Sunday morning at 10:15 AM, you’ll hear clear, faithful preaching from Scripture — honest, practical, and grounded in truth.

A Welcoming Community

Springfield Bible Church has always been known for its warmth. Whether you’re a longtime member or walking through our doors for the first time, you’ll find genuine friendliness and a place where you truly belong.

Serving Families
Across the Valley

From children and youth programs to Bible studies and community outreach, we’re committed to equipping families in Coopersburg, Hellertown, and Springfield Township to grow in their faith together.

Faithfully Serving Coopersburg and Springfield Township for Over 250 Years

Springfield Bible Church has been a cornerstone of the Springfield Township community since the 1700s. For more than two and a half centuries, this congregation has stood on the truth of God’s Word — through generations of families, seasons of change, and the test of time.

Our historic stone building at 1905 Pleasant View Rd, Coopersburg, PA 18036 is a daily reminder of that heritage. What began as a small fellowship committed to Scripture and community remains exactly that today — new generations carrying the same faith forward in the same place.

Formerly known as Springfield Mennonite Church, we recently embraced our new name — Springfield Bible Church — to more clearly reflect what has always been at our core: the Bible, the Gospel, and the families God brings through our doors. The name is new. The mission is not.
