In-Person & Online Gatherings

Blessing of the Animals
Sunday, October 1, 2023
3:00 PM
All creatures great and small are invited to gather on the church lawn for a special blessing. Pastor Adam and Seminarian Marc welcome special companions, whether they bark, meow, sing, swish, or slither. If your companion pet is unable to travel, please feel free to bring their picture. Favorite stuffed animals are also welcome. In the event of inclement weather, the Blessing of the Animals will take place in the Sanctuary.
Kensington Project
Sunday, October 8
9:30 AM
For some time, members of Overbrook have been visiting neighbors in Kensington to deliver food, toiletry items, clothing, blankets, and more. What we also bring is the love of God. Youth will be making meals and preparing other items to deliver. We are also setting aside space in the church to collect needed items on an ongoing basis.
Fall Inquirer’s Class
Sundays, October 15 and October 22, 2023
9:00 AM
Have you been attending OPC and considering membership here? Are you simply curious to know more about Presbyterianism and how our church is organized and makes decisions? Do you want to know more about our members and opportunities to serve our community? Bring your burning questions and join Adam Hearlson in the Williamson Room for an exploration of all things Overbrook. Coffee and refreshments will be served to fortify our robust discussion. RSVP to Elizabeth Mendoza, and please let us know if you would appreciate childcare during these classes.
Taste of Overbrook Dinner & Auction
Saturday, October 21, 2023
5:30 PM
For those of you who are new to OPC, “Taste of Overbrook” is a celebration of the many cultures that bring us together. You can purchase tickets online or at Fellowship Hour on Sundays (Early Bird pricing of $5 off available through Sunday 9/24!)
Organizing this event is a big task, and the Stewardship Committee needs your help! Currently, at the top of our to-do list, is gathering items for the live auction. Perhaps you have a mountain or beach house weekend to share? Tickets to a local sporting or music event? Willingness to prepare dinner for friends? Contact Keedra Carroll with any ideas or if you would like to help gather items for the live auction.
If you have a favorite dish you’d like to make, sign-up sheets will be available on Sundays at Fellowship Hour, or you can contact Carol Rozmiarek.
