Sunday Mornings are Hybrid!

We gather as a community of faith to seek deeper meaning and greater understanding in our everyday lives. Together, we explore faith, nurture community, and serve the world.

You are invited to join us on Zoom or in person on Sunday mornings at 10 a.m. The online experience of worship is interactive rather than a livestream. All attendees have the opportunity to assist in leading worship, share prayer requests, and make announcements during services.

  • You will see all people from all walks of life in our community. Worship services often contain interactive elements, and for in-person attendees, the pews are set up in a semi-circle. There are chairs along the back walls for those who prefer a bit more support, or who do not wish to be on camera. One area includes tables with art supplies and books for parents and children.

    Our Sunday mornings follow the pattern of traditional Presbyterian worship, with a bit of a twist: gathering as a community, listening to the stories of our faith, connecting ancient wisdom with everyday life, sharing joys and concerns in our prayers, and blessing one another on the journey. We enjoy musical resources from a wide range of cultures and traditions.

    MPC values participation over excellence, and you may always choose how and how much you want to participate. Zoom attendees have the option of turning off their cameras. Some people attend with partners and children, others come on their own or with friends. We offer nursery care for infants and toddlers, and all ages are welcome in the sanctuary. Children are often audible during the service. Some kids (and grownups) need to move around during the service. We invite you to come as you are.

  • Worship begins with a gathering reading, a prayer, and a hymn. Next, kids are invited to join our pastor for a story (or they are welcome to stay with family). After that, kids may return to the children’s area or sit with their families. Those who are under five may go play in the nursery at any time.

  • As a Presbyterian Church, we practice open communion: all are welcome at the table. The Lord’s Supper is celebrated on the first Sunday of the month at 10 a.m. worship. Through ordinary bread and wine, we remember that God is always present with us. We offer gluten-free bread as well as grape juice and wine.
