Rev. Stephen Benko, already pastor at the North Mutchmore Presbyterian Church, Broad and Allegheny Streets, was bilingual in Hungarian. He visited the dispersed Magyar members and started a Sunday Bible Class, and later, Hungarian worship for them. Thus came into being, with limited salary supplement for a while from Presbytery, the present Hungarian Reformed Church Fellowship. English-speaking Hungarians became members of the North Mutchmore Church, contributing financially towards its facilities and its Hungarian pastoral ministry. Reverend Dr. Bela Vassady was likewise bilingual and led worship in the two sepm:Ste7ünguáge'groups.

On October 7, 1984, the North Mutchmore congregation joined as a body Glading Memorial Presbyterian Church at Oxford Circle on Roosevelt Boulevard (Loretto and Cheltenham Avenues). Thus the Hungarian Reformed Church Fellowship, migrating with its English-speaking Mutchmore members, moved its Sunday worship into Northeast Philadelphia and affiliated with Glading Church. The Hungarian ministry of Rev. Zoltán Szabó is entirely underwritten by Glading Church and its HunganaiTmimnbers.
