130 years ago today, January 23rd 1896, Hawthorn Ave Presbyterian Church of Idlewood PA opened its doors! We are still here!! We added an "e" to our name and Idlewood became Crafton. So many have walked through those doors. We are blessed to be able to continue God's work. Happy 130 years Hawthorne!
