to you and your family

We want to extend to you and your family an invitation to be a part of our Bible classes and worship periods.

We are a non-denominational body of Christians and our only rule of faith and practice is the Bible. We are dedicated to a life of studying the Word of God (2 Timothy 2:15), teaching others the Word of God (Matthew 28:19-21; Mark 16:15-16), growing in the knowledge of God (2 Peter 3:18), and living a life according to the doctrine of Christ (2 John 9-11).

If you are looking for a church where Christ's Gospel is proclaimed and men and women strive to please God by worshipping Him in Spirit and in Truth (John 4:24), then please come visit soon!

WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN YOU VISIT

Worship is a privilege which God has given us to express our deep adoration for His love, mercy, and power. We take seriously the opportunity we have to worship together. It is our pleasure to invite you to these services. We want you to know what we are doing in these periods of worship.

  • OPEN
    At the opening of our services one of the men of the congregation will stand before the church and make announcements.
  • SINGING
    After announcements are made we begin our worship with singing. The New Testament teaches us to sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to edify each other and glorify God and Christ (Ephesians 5:19; Colossians 3:16). The song leader will announce the selections and you can find them in our book, Hymns For Worship.
  • PRAYER
    After a song or two, a prayer will be offered by one of the men. As he leads and directs all of our thoughts together (1 Timothy 2:1-4).
  • LORD'S SUPPER
    The Lord's Supper (sometimes called communion) will be offered to all Christians in memory of the death and sacrifice of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 11:23-26).
  • COLLECTION
    A collection will be taken from our members as a means of supporting the work of the church. Early Christians did this each Sunday, too (1 Corinthians 16:1,2). Visitors are under no obligation whatsoever to contribute.
  • PREACHING
    A sermon will be preached that exalts the Word of God above the will of man. The speaker will point us to scriptures from the Word of God (2 Timothy 3:16,17). You are encouraged to use your own Bible and follow along. At the conclusion of the sermon, anyone wishing to become a Christian or those who desire prayer will be given the opportunity to come forward.
  • CLOSE
    At the close of our services we engage in a word of prayer once again. After this prayer, we dismiss.

On Sunday evenings the same pattern is followed with the exception of the Lord's Supper, which is offered after the sermon to those Christians who were not in attendance that morning.

Sunday morning prior to worship services and Wednesday night are our periods of Bible study.

  • OPEN
    We begin our Bible study (classes) by first assembling together for a song or scripture reading.
  • PRAYER
    One of the men will lead us in a word of prayer. At the conclusion of this we go into our classes for Bible study.
  • STUDY
    Our classes are intended to help us all, young and old, grow in knowledge of the Word of God and grow closer to God in Jesus Christ. As a visitor you are encouraged to participate and ask any questions you may have, however, you do not need to be anxious about being called on unexpectedly to read or to answer a question.
  • ENCOURAGEMENT
    When classes are over, we again assemble together and a speaker will deliver a brief message before the congregation. This is intended to encourage us all to live faithfully as Christians and to give an opportunity to any who wish to become a Christian or those who desire prayer to come forward.
  • CLOSE
    Any important announcements will be made and then we will engage in a word of prayer, lead by one of the men of the congregation. After this prayer, we dismiss.

Now that you know what to expect at our services, we hope you will come and visit with us soon!

Prayer Is Powerful
Whether offered by one
Christian or extended by
many, "the effective, fervent
prayer of a righteous man
avails much" (James 5:16).

The New Testament church
engaged in prayer as an
important activity, not just ritual,
and we follow their example.

In fact, all that we do in our
work and worship today is
patterned after the example
of the church as found in
the New Testament.
