Sunday worship service

What can I expect on a typical Sunday?   The worship service begins at 10:45 am.   It lasts for about one hour.   We sing, pray, and listen to the sermon.   Then we talk over some snacks and refreshments.         Here is what a typical worship service looks like.   * Call to Worship   * Hymn of Adoration   * Reading of God's Law   Confession of Sins   Assurance of Forgiveness   * Confession of Faith   Congregational Prayer   * Hymn of Praise   * Scripture Reading   Sermon   Lord's Supper (last Sunday of every month)   Baptism (when applicable)   * Hymn of Thanksgiving   Prayer for the Offering   Collection of the Offering   * Doxology   * Benediction     * Indicates when attendees stand if able.

What kind of a worship service?   Simply Scriptural   We try to make our worship services as simple as possible so that the focus  will be on God. Some people ask, "How do you figure out what to do in a worship service?" We just tell them we get it from scripture.       Focus on the Gospel   We believe that the worship service is a presentation of the gospel message from start to finish. It reaches its climax with the sermon, but you'll see a smooth, logical progression of the gospel message through the entire worship service.   What should I wear? Focus on the heart, not on the looks.     Some people dress business casual. Others choose to dress comfortably in jeans and sneakers. We don't place too much of an emphasis on how we look on the outside. We hope you will come just as you are but leave with renewed minds and changed hearts.   How do you sing? The Voice of Violins and Acapella   We love the sound of the human voice, so we try to accentuate it with musical instruments that enhance the human voice. Currently we sing with violin or piano keyboard accompaniment. We need more instruments, so if you know how to play, come and join us.
