This Week’s 3 Things to Know

Service of Remembrance: Today

Today after worship there will be a Service of Remembrance in the church cemetery following the 9:45am worship service. During the Service of Remembrance we will honor the memory of members of LPPC, as well as friends and family of members, who have passed away during the last year.

Invite Sunday and Cookout: June 7

We need your help to make this a welcoming event for our community! Will you sign up to provide a side dish or dessert for our after worship cookout? Use the link in your weekly email, or stop by the table in the atrium. Don’t forget to invite your friends and neighbors.
