8538 Delaware Drive, Bangor, PA 18013 (for GPS)

Richmond UMC is located in an area of northeastern Pennsylvania known as the Slate Belt, just 15 minutes south of Interstate 80 (exit 4B), on Route 611. Stroudsburg lies to our north and Easton to our south. Our building is nestled in a valley, and ample parking may be found in the front and around the side of the building. On snowy or icy days, we recommend you use the lower driveway (accessed by Route 1017 / 5 Points/Richmond Rd.) to avoid the steeper driveway.

Directions From The North: Interstate 80 – East & West

From Interstate 80 take exit 4B towards the Portland Toll Bridge ($1, cash or EZ Pass), and on through Mount Bethel on Route 611. After Route 512 enters from the right, drive another 3 miles on 611 S and arrive at the church on the right, in a curve and at the bottom of the hill/valley.

Directions From The South: Route 611

In Easton take the “Route 611” exit off Route 22 (last exit before the NJ toll bridge) and proceed north 14.7 miles. You will pass through Sandt’s Eddy and Martins Creek and finally before entering the Village of Richmond. You will find the church on the left side (west) of Route 611, after the four-way intersection, just as the road begins to curve, at the bottom of the hill/valley.

Directions From The West

If you are near Route 33, take the “Route 512” exit in Wind Gap and travel east on this roadway. It will take you through Wind Gap, Pen Argyl, Bangor, East Bangor and on into Mount Bethel. When Route 512 ends at Route 611, take a right (south), proceed 3 miles and pull into the church lot on your right (west), in a curve and at the bottom of the hill/valley.

Directions From The East

Take the Portland or Belvidere Bridges to access our community from the New Jersey side of the Delaware River. (Note: The toll to enter Pennsylvania from New Jersey is $1, cash or EZ Pass.) From the Portland Bridge, proceed straight into Mount Bethel on Route 611 South and follow the directions “From The North” printed above. From the Belvidere Bridge, make an immediate right after the bridge by the Riverton Restaurant onto Riverton Road. Follow all the way to Route 611 in Richmond. Take a left onto 611 (south) and proceed approximately one-and-one-half miles. The church will be on your right (west), in a curve and at the bottom of the hill/valley.
