What to expect

Our beliefs are directly tiedto God's word

At our 9:30 a.m. Sunday Bible classes, we have classes for all ages, from the newborn nursery to adult studies. We believe you will find these Bible classes to be encouraging and thought-provoking, and our classes are also great places to get to know each other better in a smaller-group setting.

Our Sunday morning worship begins at 10:30 am, and usually ends around 11:30 a.m.. Our goal is to worship in the simple and meaningful ways that Jesus and the apostles taught the New Testament church to worship. We believe that worship is a verb. It is an action demonstrating our hearts. God is our audience. He is the One we are seeking to please with our praise. Therefore, our supreme desire is to worship Him in the manner in which He has set forth—in spirit and in truth (Jn. 4:24). You will notice that our worship includes many prayers. We frequently go to God to thank Him, praise Him, ask forgiveness of Him, and bring our concerns before Him.

Every Sunday, we also take communion. This is a special part of our worship as we remember the sacrifice that Jesus made on our behalf.

We also set aside a time, each Sunday, to give a portion of our means. If you are visiting with us, we want you to know that you are not obligated to give, nor is there an expectation for you to give. The members here  abide by the New Testament pattern of giving monetarily to support the work of the church.

Singing is a big part of our worship as well. We love to sing. You will notice that our singing is absent of the accompaniment of any musical instruments. We refer to this as a cappella, which means “in the style of the church.” Like the first church we read about in the book of Acts, we seek to use only the purity of our voices as we lift our hearts in praise to our Heavenly Father.

You will also notice that our preacher will present a lesson from God’s word each time we gather. These lessons come straight from the Bible and are intended to help all of us live a life that is pleasing to God.
