Worship Times & Schedules
Sunday Morning Worship
Sunday worship services are the centerpiece of Shandon's life together. Congregational Worship is held each Sunday at 8:45 a.m. and 11:00 a.m., and Sunday School for all ages begins at 9:45 a.m. The 11 o'clock worship service is followed by Fellowship in Davis Hall. Both formal and informal settings bring worshipers into a closer awareness of the presence and glory of God and His claim upon human life.
The Music Ministry has an important place in the life of the church. Members are encouraged to share and develop their gifts by participating in children's, youth, and adult choirs, instrumental groups and handbells.
Adult Sunday School
Adult Sunday School classes at Shandon Presbyterian offer opportunities to learn about our church, study the Bible, grow in your spiritual life, and meet new people. Classes meet each Sunday from 9:45-10:45 a.m.
***The Adult Classes will meet together on January 31 to hear Diana Butler Bass,
