Starting, March 7th, 11:00 AM every Sunday in the Fireside Room, the Adult Class begins a timely new series “Overcoming the World — Vital Lessons from 2nd Century Christianity for Faithfulness Today" taught by Pastor Bissett, in the Fireside Room (and also on Zoom; link required).

In the second century AD, Christianity stood at a crossroads — not unlike the crossroads we face today, in the 21st century. In the 2nd century, the future of Christianity was not at all certain. Initially it possessed little social or cultural influence, and found itself fighting for its life — battling other religions, paganism, local officials and the Roman Empire. Yet those believers faithfully faced the challenges and obstacles of their day. We can learn from them and live more faithfully in our day.

This Sunday the Adult Class has a lesson "Have you read any good Christian books lately?" on reading and the Christian Life, taught by Deacon Chad Granger, in the Fireside Room (and also on Zoom - link provided by email). 

Sunday we begin our annual Week of Prayer with a special sermon and lesson on the topic of prayer. Our guest preacher is Rev. Matthew Mierski, Assistant Pastor at First Presbyterian Ch. in Schenectady. His sermon, “The Door that God Must Open" is from Colossians 4:2-6. Matthew and his wife Bethany both grew up near Pittsburgh, and met at Duquesne University. He graduated from Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary in 2018, and was ordained in 2019. Matt and Bethany have two young children, Levi and Hannah.
During Prayer Week this year, we will have 3 in-person prayer meetings, as well as ZOOM meetings: 

***Due to the heavy snow Monday's in-person prayer meeting is cancelled; we will have a Zoom ONLY prayer meeting at 7:00 pm (see the email from the Pastor for the new link).
