Worship

An Old Testament believer wrote in Psalm 95: “Oh come, let us worship and bow down; Let us kneel before the Lord our Maker. For He is our God, And we are the people of His pasture, And the sheep of His hand” (Psalm 95:6-7).

Worship is time spent with the one True God--Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We worship God by honoring Him and praising Him with our lives (Romans 12:1ff) and in our words and songs (Psalm 66:4). Worship is going to God in heart-to-heart conversations through our prayers (1 Thessalonians 5:17). Worship is humbly listening to God speak to us through His Word and through that Word He blesses us with growing in knowledge and being strengthened in faith (2 Timothy 3:15).

When like-minded Christians gather together for worship God gives added blessings through the mutual encouragement we offer and receive together in Christ (Colossians 3:15-17).

We worship our Lord as a congregation in the following ways:

Worship services of praise and hearing the Word:

Each Sunday morning at 9:00 a.m.--a children’s message is also included.

Special worship services on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, and Good Friday.

Wednesday evening worship services during Advent and Lent.

Christian Fellowship:

There is a time for “coffee fellowship” following each Sunday service. Other opportunities for Christian fellowship also take place throughout the year.

Study in the Word

Children’s Sunday School: Following the worship service on Sundays (September - May), children who are preschool age and older gather in age appropriate classes for study in God’s Word.

Bible Study: Youth and adults gather to share in study of God’s Word and mutual encouragement through that study in a weekly Bible Study which takes place on Sundays following the worship service and fellowship time (10:15 a.m.).
