Beulah Presbyterian Church

Beulah Presbyterian Church Members come from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences. The spirit of Beulah began when thirteen men and women joined to form a church August 22, 1854.

Geographically, we are from the farms surrounding the church, the communities of Orion, Sherrard, and Coal Valley, and the wider Quad Cities area on both sides of the river. The first building was built in 1860 when the church had 39 members. Originally, supply pastors filled the pulpit on Sunday and moderated the session meetings. Later, pastors were shared with other churches. In 1956, Beulah hi

red her first full-time pastor. When flames consumed the century-old sanctuary in 1968, it marked a new beginning. A new sanctuary was completed and an educational wing added. Crosses, built of the charred timbers from the old church, grace both the sanctuary and outside of the church building. Beulah's hope for the future lies in the strength of her past, in her young people, and in the diversity of the congregation. With people from all walks of life bringing their varied talents to Beulah, the future looks bright.

Welcome and Announcements
Call to Worship
We know that, if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed,
we have a building from God, a house not made with
hands, eternal in the heavens.
For in this tent we groan,
longing to be further clothed with our heavenly dwelling,
so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
We walk by faith, not by sight.
For the love of Christ urges us on.
*Hymn # 399, “We Walk by Faith and Not By Sight”
*Prayer of Confession
God of grace,
we come before You and confess
we look at the storms of life around us,
and we struggle with doubt and fear.
We want to trust You,
but are defined by a world of skepticism, atheism and chaos.
We come to rely only on what we can see and touch,
and forget that seeing comes from believing.
When we do not believe in Your grace,
we are not only faithless, but blind.
Help our unbelief, in the Spirit of Jesus Christ.
*Assurance of Pardon
Hear the Good News of God's amazing love.
Christ does not look at our weak faith and turn away.
Jesus met Thomas in his doubt. He meets us in ours, too.
He does not demand perfect belief before He offers grace.
Our belief changes our point of view.
“So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation:
the old has passed away; everything has become fresh and
new.” Believe and share the Good News!
In Jesus Christ, we are forgiven!
In Jesus Christ, we are a new creation!

Organ Donation?

What a joy it was to gather together on June 28 for our first Organ Dedication.
Listening to the descriptive narratives and hearing how each unique feature,
sound, and beautiful texture of the instrument came alive through the music was
truly an unforgettable experience. The new organ has already deeply enriched our
worship and brought a beautiful new dimension to our musical praise.
To make this wonderful upgrade possible, we utilized approximately $20,000 from
our church's Memorial Fund to complete the purchase. This fund holds a special
place in our church, allowing us to honor loved ones by sustaining the long-term
life and beauty of our church.
If the improved musical experience has touched your heart during worship, we
kindly invite you to consider a special financial gift to help replenish our Memorial
Fund. We are not planning a formal fund drive or tracking a specific goal periodically. Instead, we are simply providing a space for those who feel moved by this beautiful addition to give as they are able.
Because our ministries rely on your steady support, we ask that any gift toward this effort be over and above your 2026 church pledge. Thank you for your continued openness, your presence, and your generosity in keeping our shared home and worship beautiful. (Note: Specify “Organ Fund”in the check memo field or on an envelope for cash donations. This is a separate contribution and is not included in your 2026 pledge.)

Welcome and Announcements
*Call to Worship
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
The earth was formless and empty,
and darkness covered the deep.
And God began to speak and said, "Let there be light,"
and there was light.
God spoke and made all creation. Give God the glory!
*Hymn # 455 - vs. 1, 3, 5, 6, “All Creatures of Our God and King”
* Confession of Sin
Holy God, You spoke and the beautiful creation sprang forth,
but we have brought chaos and disorder into Your world.
You said, "Let there be light," but we have preferred the
shadows,
trying to hide our thoughts, our words, and our deeds.
Your Word became flesh and dwelt among us
full of grace and truth.
Yet we have muffled the creative power of Your truth
with our silence when we ought to speak,
and with our noise when we ought to listen.
Forgive us, Creator God,
and speak new creation into our broken hearts once more.
Assurance of Pardon
Hear the Good News: "The true light that gives light to
everyone has come into the world.” In Christ, the Word made
flesh, our darkness is overcome. Know that God’s forgiving,
renewing love is for us all, Christ sets us free to walk in the
light. Believe and share the Good News!
In Jesus Christ, we are forgiven!
In Jesus Christ, we are a new creation!
