Adult Fellowship Potluck

Every third Wednesday at 6:00 pm

Adults laugh and bond as we feast at the potluck table. Often a guest speaker presents a program, or sometimes we have game night or a movie! Programs have included learning about fencing, having EMT explain the Yellow Dot Program, presenting travel logs, learning about ear surgery in Vietnam, and welcoming a quilter who explained her craft and displayed her art quilts.

Sensible Shoes Working Women’s Faith Group

This group grew out of a using Sharon Garlough Brown’s series Sensible Shoes. Through the lives of the women in the books, our women found support and love among their group here at LPC. They now meet in one another’s homes. There is always room for any woman at their table. They share in their desire to grow in faith and support one another as women of beauty, strength, and capability. This group celebrates life, womanhood, and service. Once again, Covid has sidelined their gatherings, but they look forward to meeting in person once again.

Bible Study

Wednesday from 10:00 am – 12:00 pm

We have found the Horizon Bible Study workbooks to be well worth our time. We are presently reading Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer. Through studying God’s word we share our stories, our fears, our heartaches, and our joys. We pray for one another, and we grow as we see a living Christ among us. If you are seeking comfort and a Bible based group to grow your faith, please come and join us.

Bible for Beginners

Teens and Tweens

Children in 6th grade and above attend worship service in the sanctuary. Pre-Covid there was a work and craft station in the sanctuary where youth engage in projects relating to the theme of the season or the service. Youth remain quiet while they work and participate in the service. Youth rotate Sundays as shepherds (helpers) in the Sunday School Classrooms. Our youth also serve as acolytes.

Confirmation Class. Youth in the 8th or 9th grade take part in a Confirmation Class. We try to have fun outings and combine them with lessons on the history and polity of the church as well as answering questions about the Bible. Summer fun at confirmation class. At the end of the class participants write their own statement of faith and become adult members of the congregation.

Teens and Tweens Youth Group met once a month for dinner, games, and prayer. This is for 12 and up through high school. We often plan outside events. Come join us and give us ideas for what you want to do.

Nursery and Sunday School for K-5th grades convenes at 10:30am during worship. We use Spark House Rotation Curriculum.

All classrooms are manned by two volunteer teachers. We are in compliance with all NY State and Presbyterian sexual misconduct and harassment policies.
