Jefferson United Presbyterian Church

Here at Jefferson UPC, we are part of a wonderful church family! All throughout this Easter season we are going to be celebrating that gift, and thinking about how we can widen our circle as we welcome others into our family of faith. We’ll be looking at the Book of Acts, where the church begins as just a small group of believers huddled in an upper room. But as the Holy Spirit begins to move, the church begins to grow as they welcome more and more people into their family ...of faith. Last week, Pastor Sharon explored the care that the people in the early church demonstrated for each other. This week, we begin to widen the circle, as we consider the believers’ compassion for people who were hurting and in need. The Scripture will be Acts 3:1-10. The service will also be live-streamed on the Jefferson United Presbyterian Church You Tube Channel.

As we journey into this Easter season, we may wonder when this pandemic and unsettledness will be over. The scriptures teach us that Jesus will always be with us. In the book of Acts, we read that the risen Christ continued to teach and guide the disciples through the work of the Holy Spirit. As a church community, we can learn from the early church who also experienced societal and political concerns. The book of Acts gives us a glimpse of the behind-the-scenes beauty and me...ssiness of the early faith community. We are also a faith community, a family circle, with wonderful memories and an exciting future. Our circle continues to widen as we open our hearts to new people and as was we experience God’s grace and love through the work of Jesus Christ. This Sunday, we will explore what it means for our family circle to embrace each other. Our Scripture passage is from Acts 4: 32-35. The service will also be live-streamed on the Jefferson United Presbyterian Church You Tube Channel. Worship in the Parking Lot! Although the Coronavirus continues to spread in Allegheny County, we are so grateful for mild spring weather than allows us to gather for worship outside in the parking lot! Weather-permitting, we will gather outside at 11:00 on Sunday. In the event of rain or cold, we will move indoors to the sanctuary. Either way, please wear a mask and practice social-distancing. The service will also be live-streamed on the Jefferson United Presbyterian Church You Tube Channel. Note: Livestreaming from the parking lot may be...tricky. The Communications team thinks it has it worked out. If not, the service will be livestreamed on the church Facebook page and posted to YouTube later that day. Thank you for your continued patience as we learn new things!
