We will celebrate "Christ the King" with our annual hymn festival on Sunday, November 24! This special festival of scripture and song marks the last Sunday of the Christian Year and will take place in the sanctuary with services at 8:45 and 11:00 am. This year, we will present some new settings of well-known hymns featuring a brass quintet, timpani, flute, classical guitar, and choir. Children will participate in the 11:00 am service in the Sanctuary to celebrate the end of Kids Rock for the fall. This will be a perfect time to warm up your vocal cords and sing the beautiful hymns of our church together!

Indian River fruit will be sold by the choir again this year. This is an important fundraiser for the IPC Choir, and we encourage all members to participate!

STAIR 3.0 is an incredible program that continues to yield amazing results!

If you're looking to make a difference in a child's life, consider signing up for STAIR 3.0. Students genuinely look forward to these encounters, and word is spreading—more children are clamoring to know more about this empowering experience! For further information, please contact Becky Wright, Children’s Fresh Air Farm Director.
