pOWERFUL MUSIC AND PRAYER
The service will begin with about 15 minutes of music led by a live band. The words of the songs will be projected onto screens. Many people will sing along and you can too. Participate as you feel comfortable. We use music as a way of expressing our love for God and appreciation for what He has done. We don’t dismiss kids for class until after this time, so they can worship with us! We’ve created a Spotify playlist so you can familiarize yourself with some of the songs we sing.
ANNOUNCEMENTS & giving
We then move into a time of tithes and offering where we give back to God a portion of what He has given us. Don’t feel obligated to give. During this time, upcoming events are announced and kids are invited to go to class.
mESSAGE FROM THE BIBLE
A lesson from the Bible will be taught. Our goal is to help everyone understand and apply it to their lives. The teaching will be challenging, practical, and hopefully will inspire you in your personal pursuit of God. If you don’t have a Bible, they are available at the Guest Services desk and back of the Worship Center. Feel free to keep it! You can also download the Bible app.
