FEATURED EVENTS & CALENDAR

Sunnyvale Pres is forming small groups of people who are interested in topics of peacemaking and social justice. 

Everyone who volunteers or works with children and/or youth is required to be Safe Church trained. The class is available several times throughout the year; you only need to attend one of the sessions.

During worship on June 1, the SVPC community will celebrate everyone promoting from 5th grade, 8th grade, high school, and all post-secondary degrees. We'll continue the celebration later at the all-church Potluck Picnic in the Park at 12:30 pm at Las Palmas Park. 

Mark your calendars now for this all-church event. Everyone is invited! Rich and Hardy will be making the BBQ (including a vegetarian option). Please just bring a side or dessert to share. Lots of activities for all ages including a jump house, cotton candy, games, and a jazz quartet! This picnic is also an extension of our Promotion Sunday celebration, so join us in celebrating all those marking their education milestones!

Volunteers are needed!

Sunnyvale Pride

Pride festival in downtown Sunnyvale, including DJ, drag performances, and vendor booths. Sunnyvale Pres is sponsoring this event, and we'll have our own booth. Come and be a part of the celebration in our own community. 

Cook up a fun week with Children's Ministry at VBS 2025: Recipe for Creativity! We’ll explore the story of Genesis — God creating people and the world. Each day includes cooking, crafts, teamwork, worship, and more as we celebrate God’s creations and explore our own creativity in the kitchen!

A Panel Discussion and Q&A with Rev. Dr. Bear Ride, Rev. Dr. Susan Craig, Rev. Dr. Jaine Sphar, and Elder Michael Adee PhD. (Founder of More Light Presbyterians) about their involvement in the LGBTQIA+ movements in the Presbyterian Church as Queer Elders and Trailblazers of the denomination.

If you've lost a loved one, join us the first Sunday of each month. Email Karlee with any questions, or learn more on the Support Groups page.

Come once a month for a beautiful and contemplative prayer gathering. Based on the contemplative practice learned at the Corrymeela Community, we'll sit for 20 minutes of silence in the presence of God, after which we'll read a short Bible passage, poem, or prayer, and then pray for the needs of community members and close with the Prayer for Courage.

Come explore a corner of our church campus where heaven touches earth. After service, follow the sidewalk next to the church office and you’ll discover the labyrinth. Anyone is welcome who would like to experience God’s closeness through walking prayer.

Combining faith with a concern for creation, this new group will use Bible study as the basis for exploring a variety of environmental topics. Throughout the year, we'll plan several hands-on activities. After the initial study, the group will also explore how Sunnyvale Pres could become an “Earth Care Congregation,” a PC(USA) designation for churches that commit to meeting environmental goals. For more information, email the environmental justice action group leader.

Join us as we seek peace, hope, healing, and love by praying for our nation at this monthly online prayer session. Sessions will begin with a guided prayer/meditation, followed by open-ended prayers expressed verbally, in silence, or written in the Zoom chat. Led by Debbie Shaver.

Stop by for conversation and connection with parents of all ages. Younger children are welcome!

Everyone's invited to Modern Worship Collective (MWC), where we faithfully try to witness how God is breaking through the spiritual status quo. We're discovering new ideas of worship where everyone can contribute in community, beauty and sacred space. We share a meal, sing new and different songs, experiment with liturgies and spiritual practices, talk with one another, and build community. We listen for ways God calls us to a larger story, and hear God’s voice in our changing and chaotic time.

Contemplative worship with Taizé-style music, meditations, prayer, and communion. Most often lay-led.

Sunnyvale Pres seniors in your 80s and older are invited to a virtual coffee hour with Pastor Annanda. Email Karlee with any questions.

Do you have a diagnosis of macular degeneration? Join us over Zoom to share experiences, resources, and helpful hints. This group meets about quarterly and is open to all with this diagnosis. Led by Rev. Evie Macway.
