Pastor Jenny launches the summer series about finding authentic connection, we’ll explore stories of Jesus gathering, healing, forgiving and breaking boundaries of who’s in and who’s out. What might it mean if we were to measure our lives in authentic connection? What if connection is the way the world changes?
Aaron Niequist visits VPC to lead music and teach the Prayer of the Examen. Nate Millheim sharing his experience with the Prayer of the Examen. Chancel Choir singing "Take My Life."
David Cropper shares his experience of practicing Lectio Divina. Pastor Jenny invites us to clear space for God this Lent. The Chancel Choir offers a beautiful sung invitation to "Come to me".
Our faith calls us to live for the common good, in authentic community with each other. As we grow in faith, we change and release the lesser allegiances and identities that divide us. How do we create eco-systems that foster our transformation?

About Valley Presbyterian Church
From the publisher's feed
Valley Presbyterian Church has an international reputation as a destination wedding setting, but for some 350 people in the Bay area, it’s more than a wedding, or even a Sunday, destination: it’s our home.
Because of our proximity to Stanford and Silicon Valley, a lot of us work in academia or technology. Because of our love of and passion for the arts, many of us are working artists, writers, and musicians – or aspiring to be! We follow Christ in the teachings of the Reform tradition (PCUSA), though individually, our paths vary. What we share is a longing for God, a connection to the community, and meaningful ways to serve the wider world.
Even though we are a destination church, we believe that we are called to risk the Spirit-led journey. And we are really one another’s traveling companions and support team along the way.
