 We live-stream our 10AM Sunday worship via YouTube. To join put the date (example: 1.3.2021) into the YouTube search bar followed by "Prineville Presbyterian Church worship." Or email the church (prinevillepc@gmail.com) and we'll send each Sunday's link 

Nearly a year into this pandemic that’s throttled back our church activities, and I’ve noticed a pattern as people stop by to drop things off, or, to pick something up.

As though they’re drawn by an unseen force…they wander toward the sanctuary…and somewhere around the glass double doors they pause…look around… and say – “I sure do miss this place.”

It’s not the building they miss…rather…it’s the special space the building holds in our lives…

…its particular preciousness.

In our quiet moments through this pandemic I believe this question of “what’s precious” has emerged in everybody’s minds.

Good people who have known a lot of good things, yet now recognize that there are fewer things they hold onto much more tightly.

Yet even at that… there is still something more...and whatever that is...has turned out be very elusive.

Looking to the year ahead, as the lines that organize our lives have been blurred and smudged…

…our traditional paint-by-numbers ways of explaining the Good News of Jesus Christ might not fit so well…

...meaning we might find ourselves having to ‘color outside the lines’ to make the Good News of Jesus Christ effective and real.

Grab your crayons and join us – we livestream Sundays at 10AM using YouTube.
