He is Risen! He is Risen Indeed! Today is Resurrection Sunday – the event that is at the very core of the Christian Faith. The empty tomb is the beating heart of our hope that somehow, someway, God in Jesus has conquered sin and death, and than we have been brought into that same victory with him. This year, we’ll explore some of the effects of having been incorporated in Christ and his victory. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/320fc7b3-939a-492c-be49-76f6c5d56159/mq2+%287%29.jpg Home - Link to Previous Worship Recordings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/ebb0e215-a92d-421e-af7f-f02896765657/Advent.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/2ed08b85-2667-4bbd-9704-f059bdefb2b0/IMG_3737-1200x900%5B1%5D.jpg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855538546-ZOB436FG0DHO55TPYJHM/IMG_0294.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855538211-5R9Z6PCWWGMP92P3D97I/IMG_0295.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855543638-ULZUS07W95YLBCYZ1B9K/IMG_0296.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855544128-3N1TV79W5LY853DWTIPJ/IMG_0297.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855550982-Z5190URU6AWEOZL6QHVW/IMG_0270.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855551894-P8S19UA5HBFUBLN9KW28/IMG_0272.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855557804-BIFW5TZUROWQYB2BYX19/IMG_0273.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855559346-17LNC90RC8IW135AU2MJ/IMG_0274.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855566474-KHNDZRDYH8LB8M7C0XR4/IMG_0275.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855567235-XD4IMEYX6TQ1C86I7N7L/IMG_0276.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855572835-9Q983BNEFL4SBE9GPZK4/IMG_0277.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855573904-UQJ3CWMZBDZNAS1FAIHT/IMG_0279.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855580014-D3LWQDCSVNSR637Q9R16/IMG_0281.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855582090-Y2VUPKZ5HFDAD3SP4CDB/IMG_0282.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855587226-A2IULA2W3HIGN41WT15E/IMG_0283.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855587520-NFZDC8GNRF1OAK8VD8GC/IMG_0284.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855592854-B68DJJ3FZ5G9KY6D5RNY/IMG_0285.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855592940-19EDL1YMJNS94CWM1C0A/IMG_0286.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855598176-QCIZUHNS9BT8A1CKITO3/IMG_0287.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855598259-YPT0R8HQ0QD0C3EDYVPI/IMG_0288.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855604746-0S62N8YPD5MNHAH9C34H/IMG_0289.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855604190-E5PBCVHWYC0UHYTTLKX7/IMG_0290.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855609285-BVWAZI3JUGXFTMH45O79/IMG_0291.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855609842-Q3P9RVHC09XCI7AM2JUL/IMG_0292.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1735855613993-GPEN08CROWFXZMDWAEB1/IMG_0293.JPG Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/6c22111c-fa12-48c5-b77c-8fe79db5aa61/Picture1.png Home - Ash Wednesday March 5th at 7pm, in the Sanctuary. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/61a62e20-cb5d-4176-a68a-31864a61ea4f/FPC+Street+View.jpg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/9c055ce2-9683-49fa-8c00-64ce9a71eef3/rummage+sale.jpg Home https://www.fpcogden.org/staff-1 daily 0.75 2024-11-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1511040485814-HKVATVL3GGHEG8H2W3PI/misc_002.jpg Staff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/9e8b324f-55a7-4558-87b3-de375e15a497/pastor+jon.jpg Staff - Jon P.

This violence is frequently hidden, and victims are often silent, fearing stigma and further violence. We all have a responsibility to speak out against violence, to ensure that women and men, boys and girls, are safe from rape and violence in homes, schools, work, streets – in all places in our societies. The campaign is simple but profound. Wear black on Thursdays. Wear a pin to declare you are part of the global movement resisting attitudes and practices that permit rape and violence. Show your respect for women who are resilient in the face of injustice and violence. Encourage others to join you. Often black has been used with negative racial connotations. In this campaign Black is used as a color of resistance and resilience. Share your Thursdays in Black photos on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, using hashtags #ThursdaysinBlack and #WCC! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/898d7c72-c5b4-47fe-9545-90b3724c5b04/Ash+Wednesday.jpg Annual Events - Ash Wednesday Service Each year, FPC partners with Trinity Presbyterian for Ash Wednesday Services. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/e837b08c-dcbd-43e0-afd9-f1624d91ced7/Deacons+5.png Annual Events - Lenten Series Weekly, during the season of Lent, FPC hosts a Lenten Study Series in partnership with Trinity Presbyterian Church. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/16287467-75e3-46b2-b8f6-98e2bea89447/maundy+thurs.jpg Annual Events - Maundy Thursday Worship Service Service is on Thursday of Holy Week and rotates between Trinity Presbyterian Church and First Presbyterian Church of Ogden. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/bde04d26-e08d-46ce-b546-4875f5e168de/good+friday.jpg Annual Events - Good Friday Worship Service Service is on Friday of Holy Week and rotates between Trinity Presbyterian Church and First Presbyterian Church of Ogden. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/0a5e7cc3-2183-486c-82bf-b846b7f98568/easter+vigil.jpg Annual Events - Great Vigil of Easter Worship Service Saturday of Holy Week.

But for some, it can be a difficult season that reminds us of loss, pain, or the ways that life can go sideways. Heightened by the advertising of our culture, there is a definite Christmas ideal that includes neatly iced gingerbread houses, smiling children, and an excessive amount of neatly wrapped packages. These standards and the church’s sometimes solitary focus on joy can make the holidays an isolating time for anyone who can not muster happiness or meet the criteria. To honor the complex emotional experience of this season, we will hold a Blue Christmas service the Wednesday before Christmas. A Blue Christmas service is an invitation for anyone who wants to acknowledge their pain and set their burdens down for a time in the midst of a community that can hold space for the sadness that so often accompanies this season. Please join us in the sanctuary at 7:00 pm on Wednesday, December 18th for our Blue Christmas service. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/ebb0e215-a92d-421e-af7f-f02896765657/Advent.png Annual Events - Advent Schedule Advent Schedule Sunday, December 1, 2024 is the 1st day of Advent.

This observation has emerged from the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) Resolution that seeks a worldwide celebration of interfaith harmony. The World Interfaith Harmony Week was started in 2010 by HM King Abdullah II and HRH Prince Ghazi bin Muhammad of Jordan. The goal of the week-long celebration is to promote harmony between citizens of the world, regardless of their faith.

On our journey through the Gospel of John, we'll be covering the second half of chapter 4, which brings the story of the Samaritan woman at the well to a conclusion with her spreading the good news of the gospel to her community, which in turn welcomes Jesus to stay with them for two days. We will then turn our attention to a second "sign" that John gives us - Jesus is back in Cana in Galilee where he heals the son of a royal official without ever seeing or touching him. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/f1e9fa34-3b3c-4353-a8f1-ec72d0dd9a50/April+30th.jpg Home Page (Copy) - Worship Sunday, April 23rd This week we turn our attention to John chapter 4 and Jesus' encounter with a Samaritan woman at a well. We'll spend some time comparing and contrasting how this story serves as a counterpart to the previous dialogue and teaching between Jesus and Nicodemus.. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/86769562-e0fc-436e-9ed5-8c589dfeba4f/April+16.jpg Home Page (Copy) - Worship Sunday, April 16th Now that Lent, Holy Week, and Resurrection Sunday are behind us and we find ourselves in the season of Easter, we'll return to our journey through the Gospel of John. If you'll recall, we left off half way through the 3rd chapter where Jesus had a long, and mainly positive, interaction with a pharisee named Nicodemus. Now, John the Evangelist abruptly turns our attention back to John the Baptist and a discussion among his disciples about purification. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1b357c38-c613-40ed-88be-d53bee810986/Easter+art+work.jpg Home Page (Copy) - Resurrection Sunday Worship Service April 9, at 10 am Today, we celebrate the culminating event of our faith - Resurrection. In the words of the angel speaking to the two Marys' on that first Easter morning, "He is risen, just as he said." We'll look at what the resurrection can mean for us and the life of the church as we seek to live as resurrection people in the world. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/80bbb6ac-4534-4862-a656-d48c3db00cc6/Palm+Sunday.jpg Home Page (Copy) - Palm Sunday April 2, 2023 at 10 am This Sunday concludes our journey through a number of metaphors Paul uses to describe how God works our salvation through the cross of Christ. This last week of Lent, we’ll be looking at God’s paradoxical victory through the cross on Palm Sunday – the day we remember Jesus’ triumphal entrance into Jerusalem. The juxtaposition of Victory and Palm Sunday is fitting for in a few short days, the victory will be won through what looks like defeat.. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1ec3d407-4659-4389-abf3-306389f0dd10/2.29.jpg Home Page (Copy) - March 26, 2023 Worship In our scriptures, the cross is seen as making atonement (when we are made “at one” with God) by breaking down barriers between God and humanity – barriers of sin, guilt, and enmity. The apostle Paul hones in on a particular consequence of when those barriers are removed, namely that we are now a part of God’s family. This week, we’ll look at the image of “adoption” as a consequence of the cross and a metaphor for salvation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/a34529b8-4677-4466-8e77-67b78c5a3fd4/Candles.jpg Home Page (Copy) - Vespers Service Please join us for Vespers, tonight, Wednesday, February 15th at 7 pm.

So, we’ll be immersing ourselves into the sacrificial system of the Jewish temple and how it is that the blood of Christ is thought to wash us clean. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/1ec3d407-4659-4389-abf3-306389f0dd10/2.29.jpg Home Page (Copy) - Worship, Sunday March 12th at 10 am The different images and metaphors scripture uses to try and make sense of the work of Jesus on the Cross which we call Atonement all stem from different experiences of the holy. This week, we’ll view the cross through the lens of God’s working for our Redemption – that is, being set free from slavery.

This week, the images we’ll be exploring deal less with the sin problem in judicial terms of “guilt/not guilty” and more with how God has Reconciled a divided humanity with one another and with God. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/671235ba-f871-4348-9711-00a42e5fb4ad/LENTEN.jpg Home Page (Copy) - FPC’s Lenten Study Wednesday, March 8th There are two (2) sessions of the Lenten Study each Wednesday, beginning tomorrow, March 1st.

The great sweep of scripture builds different pictures or metaphors for what actually happened on the cross, and the church over the last 2000 years continues to plumb the depths of these various metaphors to make sense of what happens in Atonement. During the next six weeks of Lent, we will explore six different ways of looking at how God acted to accomplish our salvation through the saving death and resurrection of Jesus. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0f7a072278e7c3c1975dbe/004115af-ee9b-4fa5-a238-a3f829a52c4b/02.19.jpg Home Page (Copy) - February 19th Worship Service …as we continue the conversation in John 3 between Jesus and Nicodemus, the Pharisee who is seeking Jesus, but has trouble understanding and believing in what he's being told.

This is the context within which the famous John 3:16 is found. We'll look at what Nicodemus was asking, and how Jesus responded. Sunday's worship guide is attached.

Because in John's Gospel, Jesus makes several trips to Jerusalem, John has the cleansing of the temple early in Jesus' career - which is what we find in the second half of chapter 2. We'll explore the meaning of this prophetic sign/act that Jesus gives, deepening our identification of Jesus with the place where God's presence dwells most fully.
