worship

When you visit our services, you will be greeted with courtesy and kindness. (Acts 10:34-35)  You will not be confused by many people speaking at the same time.  Good order will prevail at every worship service. 1 Corinthians 14:33-40)  No one will be embarrassed or singled out for any sort of demonstration or testimony.  You will be able to quietly observe and study that which is taught.

These are the things you will find us doing in our worship services:

communion

On the first day of every week, we assemble to observe the Lord’s Supper. Paul writes, “the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread: and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” In the same way He took the cup also;” 1 Corinthians 11:23-26, Acts 20:7

 

 

 

 

 

 

collections

Also, in Sunday assemblies, we cheerfully and purposefully contribute to the work of the church of our own free will and as we have prospered. 1 Corinthians 16:1-2  

prayer

At every assembly, prayer is part of what we do.  As Paul instructs, “I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting;” 1 Timothy 2:8

singing

You will find us joyously blending our voices as simply instructed:  speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,” Ephesians 5:19.  You will also notice we use no instrumental accompaniment. 

preaching

Christians attentively listen to God's word taught in worship assemblies.  Paul charged Timothy to “Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season.  Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching."  2 Timothy 4:2-5
