SUNDAY WORSHIP
at CHPC
“Christian worship joyfully ascribes all praise and honor, glory and power to the triune God. In worship the people of God acknowledge God present in the world and in their lives. As they respond to God’s claim and redemptive action in Jesus Christ, believers are transformed and renewed. In worship the faithful offer themselves to God and are equipped for God’s service in the world.”
Presbyterian Church (U.S.A) Book of Order
Worship at CHPC is communal and invitational, sacred and sensory. Two Sunday morning worship services offer different ways to receive and be transformed by God's Word together.

Traditional Sunday Worship

Sunday Worship at CHPC is an uplifting, welcoming service for all, including traditional elements like a printed worship service bulletin, congregational singing of hymns, choral and instrumental music, a gospel focused sermon, prayers and responsive readings, the monthly celebration of the Sacrament of Holy Communion (the Lord's Supper) where all are able to share in, and special observances related to the Christian calendar and events.

Music styles range from traditional to more contemporary selections. CHPC has several vocal and instrumental choirs and frequent special music offered by guest vocalists and instrumentalists.
