HOPE HERE

Worship Resumes In-Person Full-Time!

In-person and Zoom worship at Reedville! 

For in-person worship, masks are required. There will be no vaccination checks, RSVPs, or assigned seats. However, one pew on each side will be designated a “wide margins” pew, where it is understood that significant space will be observed between people not in the same household. We are still offering Zoom worship for those who are unable to join us in-person.

Offerings will continue to be collected in the plate at the back of the aisle rather than passed in the pews, and we will continue with a modified passing of the peace with your nearby pew neighbors.

Fellowship Time is encouraged after the service, but we are not yet serving coffee.

We look forward to seeing everyone!

Why hope here?

Whether you’re here for a year or a lifetime Reedville is a landing place, a community that cares for one another.

Sunday’s Sermon: The Surprising Nature of God’s Reign

For those expecting to come out on top in the realm of God it is confounding to hear Jesus talk of betrayal, death, and resurrection. It is totaling disorienting to learn that Jesus is to be welcomed like a child. The surprising nature of God’s reign demands we reexamine our priorities.

The Surprising Nature of God’s Reign at the Reedville Church this Sunday, Sept. 19, 9:30 am, in-person and on Zoom at the usual link. Contact the church office if you need it.

Hurricane Ida Relief

God is our refuge and strength
therefore, we will not fear, though the waters roar and foam.
— Psalm 46
Presbyterian Disaster Assistance is mobilized and already delivering immediate aid to those impacted by Hurricane Ida. The initial assessment of the damage is staggering. The needs of those impacted is changing daily because of lack of access to power, refrigeration, water and housing. This will be a long-term commitment to the people impacted by this catastrophic destruction.

PDA will continue to work with Presbyterian leadership to respond to Hurricane Ida and remain engaged in the recovery efforts during the hurricane season of 2021, during which several named storms are expected to impact the region. After initial needs are addressed, PDA will remain — providing emotional and spiritual care and Long-Term Recovery to address unmet needs.

We invite you to join in this effort.
The needs for the response will be great. God’s people are called on to stand in the “GAP” — Give. Act. Pray.
GIVE. ACT. PRAY.

GIVE: Gifts can be made online, by phone at (800) 872-3283 or by check, which can be made payable and mailed to Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), P.O. Box 643700, Pittsburgh, PA 15264-3700.

PRAY: God of Compassion,

With sighs too deep for human words, we come to you again in prayer, lifting up the sorrow, the trouble and the weariness of so many of your peoples. For those whose homes and communities are torn and flooded by the winds of Hurricane Ida, for those who abide in darkness and in oppressive heat, trying to begin the work of rebuilding, especially for those whose resources and access to help are tenuous, hear our prayer.

Oh, God of all things: There is so much. May your Spirit expand our vision, sustain our attention, and deepen our compassion and commitment: For neighbors in Haiti, grieving loss, working to mend bodies and lives, moving rubble, hoping for help, weary and weighed down. For neighbors fleeing fire in western states, violence and fear in Afghanistan, for people everywhere who suffer loss of home, community, livelihood, hope. Help us to be part of your healing, your Wholeness, your hope. In the name of the Christ our justice and our life. Amen.
