OUR SERVICES
When you attend our services, you will find a warm welcome and a friendly atmosphere. And if you need help, one of our greeters will be happy to help you find a seat or direct you to our nursery if you have an infant or toddler. Also at this time, you will be given a welcome card to fill out. Once you do, please hand it back to the one who gave it to you or place it in the offering basket when you leave. Offering plates are located in the back of the church.
Before the service begins, our pianist will play, and most people will take time to talk and catch up. You will know the service is beginning when one of the assistant pastors welcomes everyone and begins to give the announcements. This is followed by a Bible reading by one of our church members. This time is used to turn our hearts towards God and to prepare our hearts for the message. This is followed by hymns and Special music. Our music is both traditional and more recent hymns and spiritual songs, all of which are sung in a conservative style, striving instead to be mindful of worshiping the Lord in a way that reflects His character.
There is no dress code for our services. You will find individuals who chose to dress up for church as well as those who feel more comfortable in casual attire. So please feel free to come how you feel comfortable.
The highlight of our service is the preaching of God’s word. Our pastor will direct everyone’s attention to a scripture text and preach what it means verse by verse with the goal of revealing what God is saying to us in his word. Large screens are visible in the front of the church, which will display the Bible passages if you do not have a Bible. Main points of the message will also be displayed on the screens if you desire to take notes.
At the end of the service, the pianist will play one last song. During this time everyone is given an opportunity to reflect on the points of the message. Many individuals stay near their seats during this time, while others may make their way to the front of the church.
When the pianist finishes playing the final song, the congregation is dismissed with a word of prayer by the pastor. After which, the majority of the congregation will make their way to the foyer for a time of fellowship. Individuals leave the church at their leisure.
