Worship
 "Community" is a word that is most often used to describe worship
at Northside Presbyterian Church. We devote a significant amount
of time to sharing our faith stories with one another. The most
notable of these times are the Passing of the Peace, Announcements,
Moment for
Mission
and, most especially,
the sharing of our joys and concerns. Scripture and Witness [homily]
ground our stories in the faith of our spiritual mothers and
fathers.
We invite you to join us for worship!

Our worship combines comfortable informality within a traditional
Presbyterian liturgy, emphasizing strong participation
by lay leaders. Our sanctuary is located in the upper room (2nd
floor) of the church's NE building (the one on the right). With
ceiling-to-floor
windows,
it provides a panoramic view of the wooded splendor surrounding
us on any given Sunday morning. God's creation takes a back
seat to nobody during the course of our worship!
Ecumenical Worship
The ecumenical spirit is alive in our worship
as well as in our programs! The last Sunday of each month,
our two churches (Northside
Presbyterian and St. Aidan Episcopal Church) worship together
-- most notably through the sharing of the Communion meal.
We also
celebrate
many church holy days together (for example:
Christmas, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday) in ways as new as
our collective imagination and as old as the scriptures.
Our joint worship format currently uses a liturgy in the spirit
of Churches
Uniting in Christ (CUIC). Northside's pastor and St. Aidan's
rector alternate in providing the Witness, yet they generally
preside together at the Communion table.
Wholeness Service
Every third Sunday of every month please join
us for a Service of Wholeness (Healing), held in
the downstairs sanctuary from 6:00 to 6:45PM. If you have a
special need that you would like to lift up in worship to God
in the presence of your spiritual sisters and brothers please
join us for this intimate service.
Sermons
In case you missed a worship service, an online
archive of sermons is available on
this web site, with links to weekly lectionary readings.
