Why Worship at RCPC?
Human beings are created to marvel, wonder, and adore. In worship, we join together in the holy mystery of the triune God, that we might grow more faithfully to reflect the life of our Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer.

Our worship is grounded in the historic liturgy of the Church. Our prayers come from saints of the past and words expressed for our present life. Hymns and anthems draw from traditional text and tune to modern melody and lyrics. We value tradition, but we are contemporary in our outlook and intentional in our structure for each worship experience.

We practice the sacrament of Holy Communion on the first Sunday of each month, and all are welcome at Christ's table.

Evening Prayer Services
On the third Thursday of each month during the program year, we gather for a service of evening prayer in Roberson Chapel. This meditative service features a different theme and music each month as we lift the joys and concerns of our community gathered from the prayer line on the church’s front lawn. This service also includes the celebration of Holy Communion. Please note that some dates below are transferred if the month contains other evening worship services for special liturgical dates throughout the year.
