Each person matters

We are a group of people drawn together by a ​common faith in Jesus Christ for worship and service. ​We have no denominational affiliation; yet we ​recognize a particular fellowship “in Christ” with other ​congregations of the body of Christ. We wear no ​name but that of Christ and therefore we are simply ​referred to as Christians, just like the early Christians ​of the first century (Acts 11:26). We believe in the ​authority of the New Testament for everything that we ​do as a congregation, and as individuals. We do our ​best to model our worship, ministry, belief system and ​moral conduct after the example and teaching of Jesus ​and His apostles (2 Tim 3:16-17).

Opening Welcome

Worship begins when the ​service leader steps up to greet ​and welcome all that are in ​attendance. He will also use ​this time to make ​announcements, relay prayer ​requests, and outline the rest of ​the service. Once he concludes, ​we will have our first prayer.

Prayer (Philippians 4:6)

During each service, there will ​be multiple prayers lifted to ​God. One man will lead the ​prayer while the rest of us ​silently and collectively pray ​together. The purpose of each ​prayer will be different ​depending upon the part of ​worship we are in, but every ​prayer is directed to God the ​father in the name of His son, ​Jesus Christ.

Singing (Ephesians 5:19)

Throughout each service, we ​will sing several songs ​together. The song leader will ​stand up front and announce ​the number of each song while ​the rest of us pick up ​songbooks and sing. Songbooks ​will be located underneath the ​seat in front of you. We sing all ​of our songs a Capella, that is, ​without musical instruments. ​This may or may not be new to ​you, but it is an uplifting and ​enjoyable way of praising God ​with our collective voices. You ​are invited to join in and sing ​with us!

Communion

(1 Corinthians 11:23-26)

Every Sunday morning we ​observe the Lord's Supper, or ​communion. The individual in ​charge of communion and ​several attendants will make ​their way to the front and stand ​behind the communion table. ​He will lead us in a short ​devotional intended to remind ​us of the great sacrifice Jesus ​made on the cross for us. A ​prayer will be said and then the ​first set of trays will be passed. ​In these trays is unleavened ​bread, which represents Jesus' ​body he was willing to have ​broken for us. Another prayer ​will be said and the second set ​of trays will be passed. In these ​trays are small cups that ​contain grape juice, which ​represents Jesus' blood he was ​willing to shed for us. We all ​join together and share in this ​communion as the family of ​God. During this time, we ​silently reflect on Jesus' ​sacrifice, and rejoice that one ​day He will return to claim us ​as His own. If you feel ​uncomfortable partaking in this ​memorial, you're welcome to ​simply pass the plates to the ​person next to you.

Teaching (Acts 20:7)

During each service there will ​be a dedicated time of teaching. ​We have multiple teachers in ​the congregation, men who ​have dedicated themselves to ​learning and presenting God's ​Word in an edifying and ​effective way. During the ​service, one of our teachers will ​deliver a scripturally-based ​message. You'll notice that our ​teachers wear no ecclesiastical ​garments to set him apart. They ​will be referred to as Brother, ​Mister, or probably just by their ​first name. Lessons are usually ​around thirty minutes in length ​and may be accompanied by ​visual aids such as handouts or ​Power Point presentations. At ​the conclusion of his thoughts, ​he will invite anyone who has a ​need or a request of the church ​to come forward during the ​next song. We will then stand ​and sing together.

Giving (2 Corinthians 9:7)

Each Sunday morning service ​we take up a free-will offering. ​We believe that our blessings ​come from God, and that it is a ​blessing to be able to give of ​our means to support the work ​of the church. Trays will be ​passed in order to collect the ​funds that are given. You are ​welcome to give, but please do ​not feel pressured to in any ​way. Simply pass the tray along ​to the person next to you.

Wh​at is Salvation?

We believe that salvation comes only through Jesus ​Christ. We are saved by obeying the gospel of Jesus ​Christ (Rom 1:16; 1 Cor 15:1-4; 2 Tim 1:10). The gospel is ​the good news about Jesus coming to this earth to ​save mankind. He died upon the cross, was buried, ​and then arose from the grave victorious over death. ​To obey the gospel means to go through the death, ​burial and resurrection with Christ, through faith ​(Rom 6:17). The Bible teaches that you must believe ​and place your faith in Jesus, who has offered Himself ​as the sacrifice for your sins (John 8:24); you must ​resolve to repent, or turn away from your sins (Luke ​13:3); to confess openly your faith in the Jesus as the ​Son of God (Matt 10:32-33); and you must be buried or ​immersed in baptism for the remission or forgiveness ​of your sins (Acts 2:38, Rom 6:1-6). Obedience to the ​gospel in baptism is how the blood of Christ washes ​your sins away (Acts 22:16). It also demonstrates the ​death of your old life, the burial of who you were ​before, and a resurrection to a new life committed to ​Christ. Salvation is the work of God upon our souls ​when we are obedient to His will. Our salvation “in ​Christ” is an eternal life in Heaven (1 John 2:25).
