Oglethorpe Presbyterian Church (OPC) is a congregation of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) in Atlanta, Georgia. Founded in 1949 as a mission of nearby Peachtree Presbyterian Church, the congregation initially met on the campus of nearby Oglethorpe University. The community soon purchased nearby land and built its own church, a facility which continued to expand over the next several decades. The congregation of close to 300 is known in the community for its mission work (e.g. Food Pantry, Bargain Shop) and preschool. ==Worship== A weekly service is held each Sunday beginning at 11 A.M. Led by the Rev. Marthame Sanders, each service is relaxed yet spiritually focused. Child care is provided during this time. OPC often has special musical guests during the worship time. In the past they have hosted The Choral Guild of Atlanta, The Oglethorpe University Choir and many other talented performers. Communion is celebrated approximately monthly, and follows the liturgical calendar. All Christians are invited to participate whether or not they are members of OPC. After the worship service, refreshments are served in the Narthex of the church. This is a wonderful time to meet new friends and catch up with old ones. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Oglethorpe Presbyterian Church」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
