Mission Possible… Community and Care, with Rev. Kally Elliott. A Spacious Christianity, First Presbyterian Church of Bend, Oregon. Scripture: Hebrews 10:23-25; Matthew 4:18-22.
Living the Spacious and Radical Love of Jesus…through the lens of community and care. How are we responding to the many changes surrounding us? And, how we will continue to answer the call of Jesus to follow Him and live his radical and spacious love so that all may flourish.
About the Series, Mission Possible: Living the Spacious and Radical Love of Jesus so that all might flourish.: The commitment of First Presbyterian for the past 120 years, "to ground ourselves in the love of Christ so that we might be the presence of Christ’s love in Central Oregon and throughout the world" has not changed. However, the pandemic, the epidemic of gun violence, racial unrest, political divisions, mental health crisis and so much more over the last two years has dramatically changed the landscape around us. It has dramatically changed our lives. And, it has also dramatically impacted church life and community. This fall series will highlight the urgency of our Mission and Strategic Priorities and the opportunities to contribute in our worship and sermons.

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.
