Please join us for joint Adult Learning Community classes on Sunday, July 4th in the LOPC sanctuary when we welcome Sam & Kate Wheatley and family.  Kate is the daughter of Al and Emma Anderson, and Sam is Senior Pastor of New Song Presbyterian (PCA) in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Their mission statement reads "We are a neighborhood church seeking to bring our city into a vital relationship with Jesus Christ by loving truth, celebrating community and initiating grace."  An article from one of their newsletters explains how their Pastoral Internship Program is a means of accomplishing their vision of how to complete their mission.  "Salt Lake City is a town of vital distinct neighborhoods - 9th & 9th, Sugarhouse, West Side, Rose Park, The Avenues....Each has a personality that reflects its people.  New Song's church planting strategy envisions a congregation in each of these locals that embodies the gospel of grace.  Vital to that vision are pastors to lead these churches.  New Song's Pastoral Internship Program is raising those future leaders today."  Please join us to hear of the great things God is doing through this church.  For more information, please go to their church web site at New Song.
