These five goals aim to integrate our children and youth into the wider church and world, providing them with supportive spaces and opportunities for faith formation and service.

Adult Kirk Choir Rehearsals
Come sing with us on Wednesday evenings, 7:00 to 8:00 pm
Just as the psalms were at the heart of worship in Jewish temple and synagogues, so music has been central to Christian worship since its beginning. The hymns, anthems and other sacred music connects us to our rich Christian tradition.
World Communion Sunday, Next Week
WCS is a celebration observed by several Protestant denominations, taking place on the first Sunday of every October, and promotes Christian unity and ecumenical cooperation. It focuses on the Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper where we break bred and share the cup in the name of Jesus Christ. The tradition was established in 1933 by Hugh Thomson Kerr who ministered in the Shadyside Presbyterian Church, Pittsburgh, PA.
