Join us for In-Person or Online Worship!
We are now offering a 9:00 AM Sunday morning in-person worship service; No Registration Required. 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).
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. In the Sanctuary on Sundays, household groups will be seated together with space between families, and communion will take place the first Sunday of each month using factory-sealed packets.

Beyond Relief Meeting This Sunday
Beyond Relief is a group of people at Hamblen Park Presbyterian Church who want to move beyond the charity model of helping people in need to a deeper, more systemic model of changing society in a positive way. We refer to it as community organizing.
We want to make a lasting difference in peoples’ lives, both here at Hamblen and in the larger community around us. Our current focus is housing access, particularly crucial during the COVID pandemic. Please join us on Sunday, April 18, at 4:00 PM via Zoom as we continue to determine ways we can work for positive change. Contact Katie Haney at [email protected] for more information.

Wednesday Morning Bible Study: Miracles in Mark
Sight restored. Illnesses cured. Demons exorcised. Miracles in the gospel of Mark are more than amazing healings. They also point to the ways God’s reign breaks into our world to overthrow the destructive forces that hold us captive. Together, we’ll look at seven miracles in the gospel of Mark and discover what they reveal about Jesus and the kingdom he proclaimed. Join us via Zoom beginning April 14, at 9:30 AM!
