Our Worship
We worship God with reverence and with joy each week. Learn a little more about what you can expect…
WORSHIP
• Acts 2:42 “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.”
PRAYER
• We value the importance of prayer in our worship of God. There are several times throughout our services that we are led in prayer to praise and petition our Lord.
SERMON
• The messages on Sunday morning are relevant to life today. You won’t need to walk away from our assembly trying to make sense of what the preacher said. We take the teachings of the Bible and turn them into challenges for daily living. Challenges that you’ll understand, and challenges that will lead you to a deeper understanding of and relationship with God.
LORD’S SUPPER (Communion)
• The early church observed the Lord’s Supper every Sunday (Acts 20:7; I Corinthians 10:16-17; 11:20-26). We eat the unleavened bread which represents Jesus’ body. By eating the bread we are reminded of Jesus’ incarnate life, his teaching, ministry, and work—all he was and all he did. We also drink the “fruit of the vine” which represents the blood of Christ, which was shed for the salvation of the world.
SINGING
• Our singing is a mix of the traditional and contemporary. We sing many of the traditional songs that are familiar to members and many of our visitors. We also sing songs that are current popular spiritual songs. We sing a cappella. We simply lift our hearts to the Lord and encourage one another through our song service.
• Our praise to God and encouragement to one another has a major role in all our worship services. We begin with song, prepare our hearts for communion with song, look towards the lesson of the day with song, and conclude our services with song. Many find the song service to be one of the most uplifting aspects of our worship.
STYLE
• On any given Sunday, you’ll see the spectrum from dress suits to casual slacks and shirts. We only desire to dress in a modest way that allows us to demonstrate respect for God and others.
