Worship
We would love to have you attend worship with us. All worship is done according to New Testament pattern and example. The worship is focused on honoring God and giving glory to Him. The members are not the audience but rather God is.
Singing– Singing is Acapella. Each member sings in praise to God. Ephesians 5:19 states, “speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.” Colossians 3:16 states, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”
Praying– The Apostle Paul told the church at Thessalonica to “Pray without ceasing” (1Thessalonians 5:17). We find example in the Bible of prayers being offered to God in both personal life and also in worship. Many of the men in the congregation take turns leading pray. This is done through a humble heart and on behalf of the congregation. The Apostle Paul also indicated in the Philippian letter, “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God” (Philippians 4:6).
Communion- Each first day of the week, Christians are to partake of the Lord’s Supper. On the night Jesus was betrayed by Judas, He met with His disciples to celebrate the Passover. Jesus took bread; He blessed and broke it and gave it to His Disciples to eat. He also took the cup, gave thanks and then gave to the Disciples. The bread is representation of the body of Christ and the fruit of the vine is representative of His blood (Matthew 26:26-30). This is done to remember the Lord’s death until He comes again.
Giving- Each member also has an opportunity to give as God has commanded. Following the Lord’s Supper, an offering can be made. This is not done out of necessity. God has richly blessed each and every person. This opportunity is made for Christians to help maintain the work of the Church. “So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver” (2 Corinthians 9:7).
Preaching- A sermon is also given at both services on Sunday. These are lessons that are from the word of God and are designed to help each one understand more about the Christian life. The Bible has provided guidance for all situations in life. Sometimes these lessons are very timely for current issues of society or struggling times for the members. Either way, the goal is to glorify God by learning of His word and making application to the lives of those that follow Him. “How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher” (Romans 10:14)?
