WORLD COMMUNION SUNDAY

This is the High Church service where the choir, pastor, and congregation interact in a formal worship service.
The sermon is the liturgy and the congregation joins in a vision of Christians around the world in Holy Communion.
Come and take your place in this planetary-wide event.

This is also the Peacemaking Offering Sunday.

Practice for the play will be held during the 10:30AM service every Sunday morning beginning October 28th (except for Thanksgiving Sunday, November 25th). If you want your child to be in the play, please bring them for practice every Sunday. All children are welcome!! Tots and toddlers do not need to come to practice, but can go to the nursery instead. Christian Education is still in need of a dynamic leader. You will not be working alone. With the help of God and your Sunday school teachers, you can do this! Please answer the call!

Our church is looking good, but we need to keep it that way! So many improvements have been made that make our church a safer and more appealing home. We could still use your help in paying for all the improvements and in keeping ahead of problems. We also have a sign fund that will help to pay for signs on the property. If you can support either one of these funds, just write "Sign Fund" or "Improvement Fund" on your check and place it in the offering or mail it to Henderson Presbyterian Church, P.O. Box 91346 Henderson, NV 89009. Thanks!
