Anniversary Celebration!

On October 29---Reformation Sunday---Colbert Presbyterian will celebrate its 20th anniversary as a worshiping congregation. Plan to gather that evening for a time of reflection and celebration: beginning at 5:30 we’ll enjoy a “best of” potluck (bring your favorite dish to share); Ben will lead us in some special music; we will receive greetings and blessings from Whitworth, our mother church; thank charter members who planted the seeds for this church; and we’ll hear stories from people whose lives have been touched by Colbert’s ministry over the years.

Please plan to join us!

On behalf of this beloved community known as Colbert Presbyterian Church, I am pleased to welcome you here to our website, and I look forward to welcoming you in person very soon. Here are some things you might expect to see or experience if you come in for a closer look:

Our congregation is made up of a rather diverse collection of people who find our commonality and unity in our identity as children of God. About 350 people call this their church home. We range in age from 9 weeks to 93 years, and celebrate activities of an intergenerational nature.

Additionally:

We take our faith in the Triune God seriously, but we are not very churchy, stiff or formal.

We believe in the authority and inspiration of the scriptures, but we are not rigid in our interpretations, allowing for differing views and convictions on non-essential matters of faith.

We are a motley mixture of saints and sinners, at different places on our faith journey, but all seeking to be followers of Jesus.

We enjoy vibrant worship, including good music, rich liturgy, and faithful preaching.

We maintain traditions without being traditionalists, and we seek to be contemporary without being trendy.

We value relationships that are real, honest and authentic (which leaves a lot of room for imperfections and failures).

We are a praying church, and we believe that God is working through our prayers.

We are a church in mission, and we believe that God is working through our hands and feet.

We have joined twelve other churches in the community to form the New Hope Resource Center which provides various forms of aid to people in need, and we are pleased to host the Center on our campus.

We are committed to honoring the image of God in all people regardless of faith history, criminal record, knowledge of the Bible, addictions, sexual orientation, political views, taste in music, BMI, marital status, disabilities, or economic condition.

We hope that you will take the next step in considering being a part of this joyful faith community by worshipping with us next Sunday.
