    I've been here before for a wedding of my cousin. Her father is an alumnus so I believe that is in your favor. I actually thought about doing our wedding here. At the time they had no A/C not cool.. now they have it. This was built in honor of Mr. Heinz's mother. It's absolutely stunning. You can take a tour and the stained glass is just a wow. Sure it's not Notre Dame's Rose Glass but this is pretty stunning. They have a docent on staff if you want to buy postcards and the like. If you want to do an event or wedding talk to a docent/ look at the website. This is on the University of Pittsburgh grounds. Parking is interesting to be frank.. you can Uber. If you're over here go across the way to The Cathedral of Learning as well.

    Our wedding ceremony at Heinz Chapel was truly stunning. The space is one-of-a-kind and spectacular, and from the moment we toured it, we knew we had to get married there! The planning process with Wendy was so easy, and Sharon, our ceremony coordinator, was so organized and enthusiastic. She made sure to deal with every single difference in our ceremony with grace and elegance - from uneven numbers of bridesmaids and groomsmen, to my brother (a groomsmen) escorting bridesmaids to where they would stand and running to the back of the church to walk me down the aisle, to an a cappella group singing in the middle of the ceremony. We are so pleased with our experience with their team. Our wedding was also on a Friday, so we did not feel rushed out of the space at all. The best part of the whole day was that the garden right next to the chapel, which has been under construction since last year when we booked the space, opened specially on our wedding day. We were the first couple who was able to take pictures in the garden, which made it incredibly intimate. We loved our experience! Photo credit to Meredith McKee Photography!

    This has been my home church since 2014. I was baptized here and also created many lifelong…read morefriendship. The worship music is great as well as the message. Northway is actually one church with multiple locations (Wexford, Sewickley, Oakland, Dormont, East End & in Feb 2018, Beaver Valley) The main campus is Wexford and all of the other sites watch the sermon via screen, although sometimes there are live sermons on campus, It may sound strange, but you truly feel like you are there and the message is loud and clear. They want all of the campuses to receive the exact same message. There are serving opportunities inside and outside of the church. All off the campuses have what is called a small group (think, Bible Study) Since it is a larger church, small groups help you create personal friendship within the church. Oakland has 3 different service times on Sunday: 9am, 11am and 5pm. All generations attend, but a large group of the attendance is from college students and 20-30s. But like I said, it is all generations. I highly recommend checking it out. Its a great church and the growth of Northway tells you that others also enjoy our church. Despite Northway as a whole and the Oakland campus having a larger attendance, you truly feel like a family here and it is not overwhelming. Everyone is so welcoming.

    **FYI** The church has purchased a building and their address has changed. Please check out the…read morewebsite for the new address. My oldest son attends this church and asked me to come and visit. They purchased a new building around Easter. The church is in a more office looking building than what most people think of when they think of a church building/temple/synagogue. The 1st floor is indoor parking. They also have a small private parking lot the second floor is the Welcome Center and the children's area. The third floor is where the sanctuary is located. They have 3 services -9am, 11am, and 5pm. Their service starts with a time of praise & worship. The music is performed by a drummer, piano player, a couple of guitarists, and a violinist. I really enjoyed the time of worship. Then their is a sermon. What makes this a little different is that even though this campus of North Way has it's own pastor the sermon is given by one of the pastors that each shepherd a campus of North Way. So the sermon is "shown" live on a big screen that looks like the person is preaching from the platform where you are attending. It is streamed live from the main campus and each pastor goes to that campus to preach on their given Sunday. I thought it would be weird not having an actual pastor preaching, but you adapt quickly to the streaming. I find the concept interesting because you are able to see a couple of different preaching styles. I was at the 9am service and it was comprised of a lot of young adults but there were a few older adults. I would definitely go back. It was nice to see that my son attends a wonderful church.
