About Our Worship
Our worship is simple and based entirely on what is taught in the New Testament. We will sing together. You will probably be familiar with most of the hymns and are invited to join with us in the singing. Men in the congregation will lead in prayers. There will be a sermon, Christ-centered and designed to teach and uplift all who are present. You are urged to take notes and check what you hear against what your Bible says. There is never any attempt to teach anything profound or mysterious, just simple Bible truths. At the close of the sermon, those who wish to become Christians are invited to make this known by coming to the front of the assemble. There will be no singling out of visitors or anyone present, and no one will be asked to raise their hand or stand. No one will go about the audience urging people to come forward. Neither the worship, nor the invitation, are designed to embarrass, but rather to teach.
During the worship, the Lord's Supper or Communion will be served by men of the congregation. The New Testament teaches that Christians or members of the Lord's Church are to do this on the first day of the week (Acts 20:7). You will not be asked or expected to do so. A contribution will be taken, again because the church is commanded to do this on the first day of the week (1 Cor. 16:2). As our guest, you are not asked or expected to give. Do not feel embarrassed to pass the container to your neighbor or the men serving.
