Pentecost Sunday, May 19
Pentecost Sunday is celebrated 10 days after Jesus ascended into heaven. On this day, the disciples were gathered in a house in Jerusalem. They were greeted by an overwhelming roaring sound, like a strong gust of wind that manifested as fire resting on the heads of each disciple. We like to wear red on Pentecost Sunday to remind us of God sending the fire and being like-minded as we gather in church.
Memorial Day, May 27
In honor of Memorial Day, the church offices will be closed on Monday, May 27.

What is Mission Mission Walla Walla (MMWW)?
MMWW is for youth - from 5th-grade graduates to senior graduates. It's a week of fun, fellowship, service, worship, and eating!
What could my day look like during MMWW?
We start our day by helping out with VBS from 8 am to 12 pm. After we do some cleanup and prep for the next day of VBS, we have lunch together and then go to a service project around Walla Walla! (The projects range from yard work to extra clean up, serving at the Christian Aid Center, etc.) We come back to the church to eat dinner together before jumping into our evening bible study- a time to come together, worship, and listen to a great message about our theme this year: Growth.
The days will look a little different depending on what we have scheduled. For example, on Wednesday we will be prepping for the annual VBS BBQ and eating dinner with the families and friends of WWPC. MMWW is scheduled from 8 am-8 pm. We realize that 12 full hours each day may not work with everyone's schedule, which is why we're flexible on times that you're available.
You can invite friends that don't come to WWPC! If they'd like to join us in serving, we'd love to invite them to join us.
Volunteer Appreciation Day- June 23
We are so thankful for our many wonderful volunteers! From Sunday School Teachers, Nursery Helpers, AV Booth operators and Office Helpers, to Greeters, Ushers, Cooks, Kitchen Helpers, Kitchen Cleaners, VBS volunteers and oh, so many more. Sunday, June 23 is the day to celebrate and thank all of you! We’ll be serving strawberry shortcakes during community time for everyone.
