Sunday Worship

Every Sunday Morning at 10:30am

In person and online

Our worship is a blend of traditional and contemporary styles, and our music combines modern worship songs and traditional hymns. The Bible is preached in the context of its origins and of our lives right now, cultivating wisdom for us and our world today. We do our best to use inclusive language in our worship music, as well as in our communal prayers, congregational participation, and scripture readings. 

Youth Group

Find out more about El Parkis and upcoming events through the El Parkis Youth website.

Once a month, youth (6th through 12th grade) from Elk Grove, Loomis, and Parkside UCCs and throughout the community come together for an all El Parkis Youth Ministry Event. We volunteer locally, embark on overnight service trips, play pickup sports games, make art, and throw top-notch BBQs. Throughout the rest of the month, youth programming happens at one church per week. Anyone can join- you don’t have to belong to a church or even be religious. All are welcome.

And there are ALWAYS SNACKS.

Children’s Ministry

Sundays

We offer childcare and Sunday school for children from infants to sixth grade every Sunday morning. We also hold events for children and families as often as possible throughout the year, including Easter Egg hunts, movie nights, kid's camp, Vacation Bible School and Christmas caroling.

Adult Bible Study

Come join us for a bible study on the Book of Deuteronomy. This is a small group of people who are interested in exploring the books of the Bible and what it might say to us and to our world. The leader of this Bible study is Rick Autenrieth. He is a member of Field of Hope UCC. Rick’s role is that of facilitator, not a teacher. This group is encouraged to ask questions, explore answers, offer thoughts and feelings. Meeting new people and creating relationships while engaging in thoughtful, meaningful dialogue is the goal. You are invited to join this group at any time. There is no prerequisite, only a desire to explore and the Bible with other people
