Our Worship

John 4:23-24  But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.  (24)  God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth."

Worship in spirit is worship from our heart, mind, and soul.  It is a real part of who we are.

Worship in truth is worship that is true to God's word.  

We meet for worship every Sunday.  In Acts 20:7, we see that it was on the first day of the week that the disciples came together to break bread.  Also, in 1 Corinthians 16:2, Paul instructs the church to lay aside an offering on the first day of the week.  "The Lord's Day" as referenced in Revelation 1:10 refers to Sunday, the day that Jesus rose from the dead.  The disciples met together in the upper room on the first day of the week when Jesus revealed Himself to them and Peter's sermon on Pentecost was also on Sunday.  

Worship services include:

• Singing Hymns - Ephesians 5:19  speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord

• Prayer - 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18  Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

• Scripture reading and a sermon - 2 Timothy 4:2  Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.

• Lord's Supper -  1 Corinthians 10:16-17  The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?  (17)  For we, though many, are one bread and one body; for we all partake of that one bread.                                                                                                                                
• Offering - 2 Corinthians 9:7-8  So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.  (8)  And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.

Visitors are welcome!  As a visitor, you are not expected to give an offering and there is no part of the service where we will single you out.  What you can expect is a warm welcome and a caring congregation.
