Join us for Worship on Sundays!
Listed below is the basic order of our worship service which emphasizes the following:
the holiness of God, the leading of the Holy Spirit, the public reading of Scripture, praising God in hymns and spiritual songs, worshipping Christ in communion, intercessory prayer, monthly mission updates, the family worshipping together, biblical teaching for children, God speaking thru the body of Christ, and the priority of expository preaching with the on-going proclamation of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
