Worship services focus on readings from the Bible which point to Jesus as our Savior and teach us about the meaning of life with him. All sermons, hymns, prayers, music, and singing revolve around the Scripture readings each week.

Each service usually includes the following parts in a variety of forms:

THE INVOCATION – We call on the name of our Savior God as we gather to hear his Word and respond in praise to him.

ADMITTING SINS and RECEIVING FORGIVENESS – We begin as beggars, acknowledge our sinfulness deserves punishment from God. Then we are assured of forgiveness because of what Jesus Christ has done for us.

BIBLE READINGS – We hear selections from God’s Old Testament prophets, Jesus’ apostles, and from Jesus himself in the Gospels.

SERMON – The pastor offers instruction and encouragement in a Bible-based sermon. We hear how we can expect God’s guidance and grace for dealing with problems, as well as the promise of eternal life in heaven through Jesus.

RESPONSE TO GOD’S WORD – We respond with offerings, hymns, prayers and special music for the things God has promised to us and for strength to do what he has asked.

PARTING BLESSING – We hear one last assurance of God’s love and care. Can’t leave without it!
