Floyd Roseberry Memorial Service
Saturday September 26, 11AM | Hillside Sanctuary

Many of us at Hillside have wonderful memories of the late Pastor Floyd Roseberry. After Floyd passed away on May 31, 2026, his family held a memorial service in Southern California. Because so many of Floyd’s friends and colleagues live here in the Walnut Creek area, we will also gather at Hillside to honor and remember his life.

We would love for you to join us as we remember and celebrate Floyd’s life and the impact he had on so many of us, with lunch following the service.

Mission Springs Women's Conference
October 2-4 | Mission Springs
The Women’s Ministry team invites you to join us this fall at Mission Springs Retreat Center in Scotts Valley for their annual Fall Women’s Retreat. 

The retreat takes place Oct. 2-4 and the theme this year is "Teach Us to Pray”, centered on the Lord’s Prayer. Together, we will slow down and reflect on each phrase Jesus taught, discovering what it means to trust our Father, seek His kingdom, depend on His provision, and walk in forgiveness and surrender. This theme calls us not just to learn about prayer, but to be transformed by it. Through worship, teaching, and community, we will be renewed in our desire to pray boldly and live rooted in His presence.

We invite you to join us for a time of renewal and refreshment for your soul. Along with fellowshipping with Hillside women, it will also be a time to meet and worship with women from other Covenant churches around the area.

Details and registration information can be found here. 
Please contact Patti Freeman if you have questions or need more information.
