What to Expect:
Sunday morning worship begins at 11:00am. A typical worship service includes singing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, prayer, the public reading of scripture, preaching of the word, and practicing the ordinances regularly. The service usually ends around 12:15pm. Sunday School is in session from 10:00-10:40am (beginning April 21st, 2024). We plan to begin Sunday evening service soon (TBD), and it will be from 5:00-5:45pm. Ordinarily, on 1st and 3rd Wednesdays we have a fellowship meal and devotion at 6:00pm.
We are firm believers in the ordinary means of grace (prayer, preaching, and the ordinances); that by them God is pleased to save and sanctify His church. Children are welcome and a delight to have in the service, even with all their wiggles and whispers. We do provide a "nursing mother's room" for nursing mothers, and a "reset room" where parents can help their children get reoriented during the service if needed.
Families are encouraged to regularly conduct brief family devotions in their homes during the week in preparation for the Lord's day each week. In homes where family worship occurs with some regularity, even small children learn quickly what is expected during worship, and they readily become able to enjoy the means of grace that are accessible to them with the entire congregation on Sundays.
