September Worship Series

Join us at both worship services in September as we look closely at our own money stories while hearing the liberating and transforming money stories of God. We will center justice as we remember, release, reimagine, and restore our relationship with money and the church.

Sunday School Returns

Godly Play (ages 4-4th grade) and Youth Sunday School (5th-12th grade) return on Sunday, September 8 during the 9:30am worship service. Children will join their families at the beginning of worship before going to class. There is a Children’s Moment in the 9:30am service every Sunday especially for kids.

Backpackpalooza

Backpackpalooza is back and better than ever! Join us on Saturday, August 3 for a day of food and fun as we distribute backpacks to kids to San Mateo County. Call the church office to sign up to help!

July 30 10am Worship

Please note that we have a special combined worship service on Sunday, July 30 at 10am in the sanctuary. All are welcome. We will also eat together a taco lunch in the social hall following the service. It is free and you only need to bring yourself!

Maundy Thursday Service

You are warmly invited to an evening of reflection and thanksgiving with friends in faith around the Peninsula that begins with conversations around a communal meal, includes a simple project to create care packs to benefit folks in our wider community, and concludes with classic traditions of Eucharist and foot washing. Come for part or all of the evening. RSVP for the potluck meal or a component of our care packs here. Held at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Burlingame at 415 El Camino Real.

Lent Worship Series

Join us this season of Lent as we journey with Peter, one of Jesus’ most famous disciples. We’ll watch the story of Jesus unfold through the eyes of a very normal human trying to figure it all out – just like us.

Lent Book Study

Join Pastor Ann this Lent in reading daily deovtions by author Kate Bowler. Books are available at church for $15 or from your favorite bookseller. The book will lead you through daily Lenten prayers and we’ll gather via Zoom (1st session: Feb 25 @7pm) to discuss the book and the season. Lent begins Wednesday, Feb 14!
