What distinguished the theology of the Reformation from the theology of the Roman Catholic church in the 16th century? “The Five Solas” lie at the center of our faith. Adult & Children’s Sunday School Classes follow the service.
Sunday School for all ages at 11:00 am
Adult Sunday School! If you haven’t had an opportunity to join us, we would love to have you! Our curriculum complements the children’s curriculum as the Holy Spirit guides us all as one body in Christ. Kindergarten & Up children are “Moving Further” in their new Sunday School Classroom after worship. Cozy Corner Nursery will be a safe place to explore and learn with age appropriate activities for newborn through Pre-Kindergarten.
All Children begin classes in the Chapel immediately after the Worship service with singing.
CHURCH NEWS
New Date: Congregational Meeting Sunday, October 9, 2022
Since your Session was unable to meet because of Hurricane Ian, the Congregational Meeting has been moved to October 9th. The meeting will immediately follow the 10:00 worship service in order to elect a new slate of ruling elders.
HPPC All Church Survey now available.
As a church family together, we want to establish priorities as HPPC moves forward. Thank you for participating in this survey which will be identifying strengths, as well as opportunities for improvement. The anonymous survey is being conducted by Leighton Ford Ministries, a Christian non-profit that specializes in ministry leadership. Each member of a household (16 years and up) should respond.
The survey will take you about 20-30 minutes to complete. You will need to complete the survey in one sitting. (If you are interrupted before sending, you will need to start over.)

Paper Surveys: will be available after Worship, on the island next to the office and at the luncheon on Wednesday. Call or email the office: if you want a paper survey and return envelope mailed to you.
The Books of the Bible recited by Carter Claire Crum and Madeline Plyler
If you pass by our Chapel following the worship service, you’re sure to hear the kids singing … and learning the Books of the Bible. Two students celebrated “moving further” by reciting them. You can see and hear Carter Claire Crum recite the books of the Old Testament, and Madeline Plyler recite the New Testament.
They worked very hard on this; please congratulate them when you see them in church!

1. Name of each adult
2. Phone of each adult
3. Email of each adult
4. Full mailing address
5. Childrens’ name and current school grade or age
Church-wide surveys will be sent soon: we want to be sure you get your chance to share your ideas.
