Worship Every Sunday morning at 9:30 am.Worship - that’s what we do at Old Pine. It’s our primary activity. We praise God. We delve into the sacred story. We gather at the font and table. In the midst of this rich interweaving of scripture and sermon, song, and prayer, the Old Pine community shares its joys and concerns in prayer and extends the hand of fellowship to all who walk through the doors. Old Pine’s worship offers an opportunity to reflect quietly, to hear God’s word in Scripture, sermon and song, and examine how it intersects with the world we live in. We leave in peace - refreshed, challenged perhaps, and strengthened because we have been with God and with one another. |

Pearlington Mission Trip
The crew arrived home safely after a week-long Gulf Coast Mission Trip. The did various rebuilding jobs at four different home sites, and helped put the camp kitchen back together. They pulled up a damaged floor and replaced it with new flooring. They installed drywall, spackled, sanded and painted. They did some plumbing and moved dirt. They cleaned and cooked and did paperwork. We made a small dent in the arduous task of rebuliding the Gulf Coast region following Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, which hit in August 2005.

Enjoy the summer. See you in church!
