Piedmont Presbyterian Church

On Pentecost, Piedmont and Promised Land will have one worship service only, at 10am. Please join us in welcoming the Holy Spirit into our lives. To help us celebrate, wear red (if you have some to wear), which symbolizes the fire of the Holy Spirit that appeared over the heads of the disciples in Acts 2. The worship service will be followed by potluck at 11am. Please bring a dish to share. The Bible Study on Thursday, May 24th, at 7pm will focus on Leviticus 25:1-12.

Promised Land celebrated women’s gifts with worship and time together with friends and family. On May 12th, Promised Land hosted a Mother-daughter luncheon and painting party catered by Soup Coolerz, and enjoyed a delicious meal followed by painting pictures of praise. Thank you to Sister Althea, Sister Ca’Sondra and Soup Coolerz Brother Marcus and his mother for making this wonderful event possible. On Sunday, May 6th, women’s gifts in worship were celebrated with poetry, song and a message from First Lady Althea Sails. Many thanks to the Praise Team from Allen Temple CME church who joined us for the celebration.

Promised Land and Piedmont Presbyterian were glad to welcome Rev. Brian Heron, Presbyter for Vision and Mission of the Presbytery of the Cascades with a potluck on Easter Monday. He has a blog post, Holy Bread Crumbs, which is a great way to join him in his musings. Since he’s spent lots of time on a bike, we are planning to recruit him for our Promised Land/Piedmont Bridge Pedal team this summer.

Easter will include worship at our usual times and an additional Sunrise Service and a special 11am coffee hour of deviled eggs and hot cross buns. Please join us for worship!

Observe the beginning of Lent, the 40 days of preparation before Easter, with a worship service of readings, prayers and the marking of ash on your forehead to remind you of your own mortality and fallibility. Our Lenten journey will reflect on Jesus’ life of ministry and deepening our relationship with him through prayer. All are welcome.

Hosted by Promised Land Community Church, beginning at 10pm, Sunday, Dec. 31st.
