Pastor’s Installation
After serving Gladden UP for three years as a Designated Pastor, the congregation voted in call Pastor Beth as the Installed Pastor. The installation and celebration of this mile marker will be held during morning worship at 10:30 a.m. on Sunday, June 14. The day includes a special guest minister, Rev. M. Catherine Day, newly appointed missionary co-workers with the PC (USA) in Malawi. The installation commission from Pittsburgh Presbytery will conduct the official installation portion of the meeting. A luncheon will follow morning worship.

Great testimony of our relationship with Christ
Here is a song that embraces who Christ is in the midst of our suffering ….
Bring the Rain
Mercy Me
I can count a million times
People asking me how I
Can praise You with all that
I’ve gone through
The question just amazes me
Can circumstances possibly
Change who I forever am in You
Maybe since my life was changed
Long before these rainy days
It’s never really ever crossed my mind
To turn my back on you, oh Lord
My only shelter from the storm
But instead I draw closer through these times
So I pray
Bring me joy, bring me peace
Bring the chance to be free
Bring me anything that brings You glory
And I know there’ll be days
When this life brings me pain
But if that’s what it takes to praise You
Jesus, bring the rain
I am yours regardless of the clouds that may
loom above because you are much greater than
my pain you who made a way for me suffering
your destiny so tell me whats a little rain
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
is the Lord God almighty
is the Lord God almighty
I’m forever singing…
everybody singing…
Holy holy holy
You are holy
You are holy
