  • Directory Update

In an effort to bring our directory up to date, photos will be taken in Fellowship Hall for a limited time. Our church photographers will be available after each service May 19–June 16 with a deadline before a new directory is printed on June 17.

Another option is to submit your own individual or family photo. For the best result, the photo should be:

* high resolution
* neutral background
* landscape format/horizontal

Please email to connect@pittsfordpres.org by June 17.

  • Attention  2024 GRADUATES  at all levels! 

Your church family would like to celebrate  with you. 

Please email Pastor Erin (erin.jacobson@pittsfordpres.org) your commencement information and your future plans (along with a photo) for inclusion in the bulletin on June 16, 2024 (Dads and Grads Sunday). 

  • May 5 through 12 -  Help Us Bless the Labyrinth 

Our labyrinth will be available again! We would love your help blessing the labyrinth to do God's work with the Faith & Grief workshops and other spiritual events. Starting May 5, after Sunday worship or whenever you are here, please come to room 201 where you can experience what many cultures and religions around the world for thousands of years have experienced. Walking the labyrinth can represent a sacred pilgrimage and be used as an opportunity to slowly and meditatively explore personal and spiritual matters. Directions and guided prayer sheets are available. Please remove shoes before entering the labyrinth. The labyrinth will be available until the next Sunday, May 12.

  • Fellowship Opportunity

Are you a runner or runner want-to-be? Would you like to trail run at Mendon Ponds Park but don't like to run alone? Would you like to increase your fitness level over the summer? If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, this First Pres Fellowship opportunity may be for you. Dan H. is starting up a trail running group in mid-May. We will start with easy three-mile runs on fairly flat terrain, then gradually add hills and run along the esker ridges. Gradually increasing the distance, the goal is to run 6 to 8 miles by the end of the sum-mer. We will plan to run three times a week and see every corner of this beautiful park. If you're interested, please reach out to Dan. He'll send out a poll to find mutually convenient times.
