Worship
Your pastors and church leaders are working diligently to bring you worship resources online this weekend. On
Sun., March 22,
please access the
live webcast page
of the website for the latest instructions. There will be
no
live webcast, but you will have access to a range of materials on a number of platforms. (Please use the buttons to download documents, and follow the links to access media.)
We regret that we cannot gather in-person to worship, but we hope you will gather with us in spirit.
Reminder
- The Shadyside Presbyterian Church online worship archive contains audio recordings of worship from previous years, which we encourage you to explore. We hope these archived resources will enhance your personal devotional time as we face an extended period of physical separation from our community of faith.

"In Case You Missed It..."
Unfortunately, everyone missed the opportunity to hear the homily the
Reverend Kendra L. Buckwalter Smith prepared for the Lenten vespers service which was to be held this past Wednesday evening.
We have wonderful news, though! You can watch a
video of Rev. Smith delivering her message on Facebook, or you can visit the
online worship archive to listen to the audio recording. (No Facebook account is needed to watch the video.)
