A Service of Lament and Hope

Join us for a special service of worship as we make space for grief, prayer, healing, and hope. Through scripture, comforting hymns, special liturgy, and prayers for our community, we will remember that lament is a sacred act of faith and that even amid loss, God’s steadfast love remains present and hope still rises from wounded places.

Join us in welcoming Lauren Moffet to our church family!


Lauren is a retired educator who has called Kerrville home for the past six years after moving to the area to be closer to family. She has a lifelong connection to the Presbyterian Church, previously worked at Mo-Ranch, and is a graduate of Austin College.

Adult Sunday School Classes


Mapping the Afterlife:

Heaven, Hell, and the Human Imagination


9:00 a.m. in Ryan Hall

Led by Jasiel Hernandez Garcia


This four-week Sunday school class explores the fascinating intersection of theology, history, mythology, geography, and imagination through themes inspired by The Devil’s Atlas: An Explorer’s Guide to Heavens, Hells, and Afterworlds by Edward Brooke-Hitching. Together, we will examine how ancient civilizations, medieval Christians, and world religions envisioned the cosmos and the afterlife—and what those visions reveal about humanity’s deepest fears, hopes, and longings.


Alongside historical exploration, the class will engage Christian theology and scripture to reflect on resurrection, judgment, mercy, paradise, and the mystery of God’s future. Participants do not need to read the book beforehand.


Weekly Outline

June 7 — Cosmic Geography and the Structure of the Universe

June 14 — Mapping Hell: Punishment, Morality, and Social Order
June 21 — Finding Paradise: Resurrection, and the Hope of Heaven

June 28 — The Edge of the World: Monsters, Apocalypse, and the Limits of Knowledge
