Weekly
9:15 am
Gathering in Grace
If
you would like a
quiet place for prayer and reflection,
you are welcome to enjoy the Chapel.
Invite a prayer partner to join you, write a note, or
prepare for worship. A prayer card you have written to be shared
in our worship together can be given to an usher, a deacon, or
pastor.
Our
Choir shares the gift of music beginning
their rehearsal at
9:30 am.
You
are very welcome to join us! We usually sing through the hymns
before working on the
anthem for the day.
It is a wonderful way to prepare for worship.
Or, you may wish to gather
to visit with members and friends in the Narthex and
greet folks as they arrive!

A Brief History of Our
Congregation-Colonial
Heights began as a merger
between three United Presbyterian
congregations. Holt Chinese, First United Presbyterian (itself a
merger of 1st, 3rd & the Italian United), and Mizpah
Presbyterian Churches shared a new venture in1961 with the
chartering of CHPC, and in1962 the building at SE Stephens &
28th was built. We treasure the heritage of these
predecessor congregations who cherished fine music, offered a
welcome to all people, earnestly supported mission, and nurtured
children. Connected to, and appreciative of,
our past---we are a church of the present seeking God's
leading here and now. The last Sunday of each month we host
a welcome lunch for all visitors and share a tour of the building
along with a more extensive history of the church and its mission
and ministry today. Please join us any time!
