Event Details
I am hoping that this will be a recurring weekly event, if I can generate enough (or any) interest. I’m looking to start a beginner-friendly level ensemble for homeschoolers and am not 100% set on this exact time or weekday but need to start somewhere. The idea is to gather for lunch/socialization and then practice for about an hour, allowing time to clean up after.

Come and praise and worship our great God with us each Sunday morning at 10:00am! Join in person or via livestream by clicking the Join Livestream link on the front page of our website.
Our church is a diverse congregation that delights in seeing Christ’s work across generational lines. Families, including youth of all ages and the elderly, worship together each Lord’s day. We experience the worldwide power of the gospel as we worship with brothers and sisters from a variety of nations and races. As the Lord leads, we invite you to come visit and worship with us!
We hold an English language service in our main auditorium and a Chinese language service in our fellowship hall. Every other month, the English and Chinese portions of our congregation combine for a communion service in English and translated into Chinese.
After the worship service, learn with us as part of our extensive and holistic Christian Education program.
English and Chinese classes are offered for adults, and youth are segmented by grade levels for classes in English.
Note: During the month of August and until after Labor Day, we break from our morning Christian Education program and have a brunch following the morning service.

Titus 2
2023-09-18 19:00 - 20:30 | Bill & Rose’s Home, PA, United States
We are looking forward to spending time with women from our church at our Titus 2 meetings. As usual, we will meet the third Monday of the month beginning in September. Rose has opened her home for us again, and the meetings are from 7:00-8:30 p.m. Snacks are optional.
This year we are going to use Susan Hunt’s book Spiritual Mothering. This book helps us understand the Titus 2 model. We all can be and probably have been a spiritual mother to someone OR have benefitted from the lessons of a spiritual mother.
This study is for all women. Each chapter ends with a section for reflection in the scriptures. Some also include a practical way to encourage another woman in her walk with the Lord. For those who want a “how to” manual, you will find some information here; for those who want to understand the Scripture’s command, you will find that as well. And while exploring these things, we will become better friends to one another.
We encourage all women of the church to join us in-person or virtually. The first meeting is Monday, September 18. Please see Catherine if you would like to purchase a book for $15.

Child Protection Training
2023-09-19 19:00 - 20:00 | Reformed Presbyterian Church of North Hills, 606 Thompson Run Road, Pittsburgh, PA, 15237, United States
As part of the RPCNH’s response to PA. Act 153 related to the protection of children, the Session requires that all volunteers maintain the necessary clearances (clearances are renewable every five years) AND that the pastoral staff, ordained officers, and all certified adult volunteers review the church’s training video once every three years.
The ACT 153 sub-committee is offering the following dates for groups to view and discuss the training video: Tuesday, September 19, Monday, September 25, and Thursday September 28.
All sessions will be held at the church at 7:00 p.m. in the church library. Please talk with a committee member (Pastor Blocki, Bill Weir, or Bette C.) to check on your status (if you are due to watch the training video). We do have a copy of the video that individuals can borrow in order to view the training at home. The committee strongly recommends and prefers that individuals attend one of the training sessions in person. The ensuing discussion and questions are an extremely valuable and important part of the training.

Hydroplate Conference
2023-09-21 - 2023-09-23 | N/A, United States
For those who are interested in knowing more about a creation science theory titled the Hydroplate Theory (HPT), you can listen in on a free three-day virtual conference, September 21-23, by registering at: https://www.hydroplate.org/conf-2023.
By registering, you can also listen to them as archived videos. The HPT, developed by Dr. Walt Brown, theorizes that all the water we see on the earth’s surface today once existed in subterranean water chambers about ten miles under the earth’s surface. The water eventually burst through the surface erupting as the fountains the deep, which created Noah’s flood. Dr. Brown’s theory is fascinating and connects many unanswered questions about physical phenomenon together.
