On Sunday mornings we gather to worship, share and be challenged to create spaces of grace.
The service starts at 10am, but online gathering and prelude starts 15 minutes early. Feel free to use this time to check your connection, pour some coffee, read announcements, fellowship in chat, listen to the prelude music, be still and center yourself.
Join us Sunday mornings at 10am here to worship with the First Presbyterian church of Bend community!
Connection Card
Were you challenged or encouraged by the service at First Presbyterian? Connect with our community in any way you feel most comfortable.
At First Presbyterian, you will meet people at many different places theologically and spiritually. And we love it that way. We want to be a place where our diversity brings us together and where conversation takes us all deeper in our understanding of God.
We call this kind of faith “Spacious Christianity.” We don’t ask anyone to sign creeds or statements of belief. The life of faith is about a way of being in the world and a faith that shows itself in love.
