What to Expect

What are services like?
Contemporary Service - Sunday 9 am With classic elements of Scripture, prayers and a message, this service is led by a rock band. You may not know the songs when you first start coming, but part of the vibe is that you are welcome to sit and listen. Start singing when you catch on. This is God's timeless love in a style as fresh as your favorite radio station. Traditional Service - Sunday 10:30 am This is a classic Presbyterian service with music led by a stirring choir and an excellent pipe organ. Orangewood is still fairly informal. There is rarely a tie in our sanctuary, and the people love to catch up with each other during the passing of the peace. Our sanctuary is in the round, as a symbol of God's family gathering around God's table.

What is the community like?
Orangewood Presbyterian Church is a congregation of approximately 370 members that offers many opportunities for community participation. Affiliated with the Presbyterian Church USA we are joined with Christians all over the world in the One Body of Christ. Our mission statement is: Orangewood Presbyterian Church is a river of God's love flowing into the dry places of our community. We believe in God made known to us in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. By God's grace we are saved through faith in Jesus Christ. Orangewood is strongly committed to mission with the poor, hungry, abused, and homeless here in Phoenix and around the world. There are many opportunities for hands on mission, and almost all of our members who are able are involved. Hands-on mission opportunities include: Working in a food bank Making dinner in a homeless shelter Building a house in Mexico A yearly mission trip to Honduras Working in our community garden Making quilts and more!

What if I'm not a Christian?
Welcome! We will not hit you hard with doctrine and altar calls, but rather will welcome you and try to let God love you through us. We run regular new member's classes in which those who are interested can learn more about Jesus Christ and about being a Christian and a Presbyterian.
