Events held at the Little White Church and conducted by the Christian Action Council of Palmerton Area Churches (CACPAC) include:
~~~~~ A HEALING SERVICE
On Sunday evening, May 18, 2008, the community Healing Service consisted of hymns, prayers, a short sermon by Reverend George Eckstein pastor of First United Church of Christ in Palmerton, and Communion. Small groups participated in intense prayer and anointing was also offered for those requesting healing.
~~~~~ A THANKSGIVING EVE SERVICE
On November 21, 2007 although the Thanksgiving Eve service was planned and coordinated by member churches of CACPAC, Palmerton Area Historical Society members Mrs. Shirley Blynn and Mrs. Marge Porambo provided creative fall arrangements for the front of the church and provided handcrafted book designs and fall candles for every window sill.
Mr. and Mrs. Heydt (Jeff and Lori) served as ushers while the Reverend George Eckstein extended a warm welcome. Mr. Ted Steinbrecher provided the musical accompaniment on the old pump organ while those in attendance sang the hymns. Reverend Eckstein delivered the sermon "The Danger of Forgetting." Mr. Biff Hayes led the Litany of Confession, Reverends Nathan Fry, Jody Neifert, and Paul Schoffstall read the Scripture lessons, and Reverend Jody Neifert pronounced the benediction.
