Graham Memorial Presbyterian Church, Coronado, CA

Blended Worship Service

Calendar Event Description

The Blended Worship Service began its outreach at the beginning of September 2008 and will continue to evolve in order to meet the needs and desires of the families it draws. What previously was a second traditional morning worship service now combines elements of both traditional worship and contemporary praise worship.

The timing of this service is perfect for adult leaders of the children's Sunday School classes who want to worship with their own children in a sanctuary setting. It also allows teens to worship together in a relaxed and welcoming environment following the conclusion of their own weekly youth group called Sunday AM.
