Worship at WPPCGathering to worship God is the center of our life together.  We are blessed to have a creative and vibrant music ministry and an engaging and relevant preaching ministry. 






Our pastors seek to explore with the congregation
through preaching what it means to be a disciple of Jesus in our own time and place.  Their preaching is grounded in the firm convictions that we are loved by God and in turn we are called to a ministries of love.


Our music program nurtures and enriches the faith of many who worship in our congregation.  Our music director and our voice and bell choirs all bring tremendous gifts to share.  They work with dedication to prepare pieces of music that tell of the wonder of God's grace and call us to lives of faith.  Our youth and children's choirs also bring many gifts to our worship.


As we come together to worship God, our style of worship is broadly traditional, but we strive not to be bound by that tradition.  Drawing upon both the Presbyterian Hymnal (1990 - "the blue hymnal") and Sing! A New Creation (2001 - green), we sing many beloved "old" hymns but also a mix of newer hymns, folk hymns, praise songs, and music from the church around the world.  Our liturgy will be familiar to life-long Presbyterians, but we also include prayers, sung responses and other elements from the many traditions of the church around the world to enrich our own faith and practice of worshiping God.


We celebrate the many gifts of women and men in our community as we gather to worship God.  Every week we have a children's sermon that speaks to the children as well as the children within all of us.  Children and youth also regularly help lead us in our worship in a variety of ways.  Women and men serve as elders, ushers, readers, liturgists, and greeters.  We make good use of the variety of our talents and gifts!


We share the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper once a month at our 8:30am service and quarterly at our 11:00am service.  During June, July, August, and September, we celebrate the sacrament on the first Sunday of each month at the 10:00am service.  We also have special evening communion services during Advent and Lent.
