Lent is a season where we take seriously God's call to repentance. We acknowledge all the ways we fail to love God and our neighbor, and we turn our hearts towards God. As we turn from choices and thoughts that draw us away from God, we embrace the power of God's restorative grace. During Lent, our Wednesday morning Bible study will explore the book of Joel and discover its dual call to repentance and hope. Join us every week on Zoom at 9:30 AM. To receive a Zoom link, contact Heather Notske at [email protected].

On Sunday, March 7th, we will move to a 9:00 AM Sunday morning worship time, and we invite you to worship in our church building with us! Gospel singer/pianist Angela Hunt will provide special music. We will be live-streaming the service on YouTube at the same time for those who wish to participate remotely (it will remain online if you would like to watch it later). We have purchased new audio/visual equipment in order to maintain a quality viewing experience for those at home.

During the 9:00 hour, there will be in-person Sunday school for children in Kindergarten-5th grade, as well as nursery care for younger children. Journey will go in-person on Wednesday, March 10, 6:00-7:00 PM, with no meal. In the Sanctuary on Sundays, household groups will be seated together with empty pews between families, and communion will take place the first Sunday of each month using factory-sealed packets.

No registration is required! HPPC will continue to adhere to the most recent government mandates. Out of love for one another, you can expect rigorous safety procedures which are outlined on our website. Keep your eye out for an upcoming video, which will briefly cover what you can expect at an in-person worship service.

Your Hamblen contributions to Westminster Food Pantry during 2020 were used for general operating expenses, van repair, PPE supplies for staff and guests, Second Harvest Food, purchase of personal hygiene items, and additional wages for staff since volunteer involvement has been cut significantly during Covid. Their biggest need at this time is the acquisition of a different van. If you have a van or vehicle that would serve the needs of the food bank and could donate it or sell for a reasonable price, it would be greatly appreciated. Learn more about how your contributions help the Westminster Food Pantry HERE.
