Beginning January 8, Jim Blades’ new Sermon Series, “Gospel Parables: “Christ’s Troublous Tales”

1/8: Epiphany Stars Sunday

SERMON SERIES BEGINS

After journeying across the Atlantic Ocean through the Panama Canal to the Port of Los Angeles, our church’s new Veritas chancel organ is due to arrive by truck the week of January 8!

The Sanctuary will be closed for organ installation January 15, 22 and 29. Sunday morning worship will be moved to Wilson Hall.  

“…stretching forward to what lies ahead …” (Philippians 3:13)

SUNDAY MORNINGS will feature two worship opportunities at 9:00 & 10:30 am with the return of Praise Singers and Chancel Choir.

During October, I will preach a sermon series entitled Understanding the Will of God.

A riddle for you:  This fall at FPC, what’s new, old, the same and different all at once?

Pastor’s Year-End Summary Report for 2010

Dear Church Family:

At last year’s annual meeting, I verbalized the following leadership goal for 2010:

Last October, our congregation engaged in the process of telling our personal stories of how First Presbyterian Church SLO has made an appreciative difference in our lives. At the November 7 half-day Summit retreat, nearly 100 of you broke up into small groups and brainstormed your visions and dreams for our church’s future.
