Our worship is simple and based on what is taught in the New Testament.
We will sing together. You will probably be familiar with some 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 assembly. There will
be no singling out of visitors or anyone present. 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
the 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). If you do not wish to participate, you will not be asked
or expected to do so. Also, 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.
Many have said, "Had I know it was like this, I would have come
sooner." Come see for yourself. You will see in our worship how the
early church worshipped 2000 years ago and you will be our honored guest.
