Who We Are?
We have modeled our Worship after the first Church as we find these components listed in Acts 2:42
The Study of God's Word
Whether it is in the form of Sunday School, a Sunday sermon, a King’s Club lesson, or a Wednesday night study, God’s Word is a centerpiece in our gatherings. We strive to “correctly impart the Word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15), strictly adhering to it as our authority. Our pillars of belief may not coincide with some of todays popular views. We prefer Biblical integrity to popularity.
The Warm Fellowship of Believers
As a small church, we are deeply connected, and share in each other’s joys, sorrows, and concerns. We are strengthened by meeting together in our commitment to our Savior, our endurance in life, and our efforts to serve our fellow man. With “the harvest great, and the workers few,” (Matthew 9:37), we eagerly welcome all who enter our doors.
The Lord's Supper
We partake in Communion each Sunday. We “do this to remember, and announce the Lord’s death” (1 Corinthians 11:23-26). Through the Lord’s Supper, we examine ourselves as we appreciate Jesus’ sacrifice for the world. We count Communion a privelege, and utilize it as a means for believers to draw closer to Him and each other.
Seek God in Prayer
Each week we spend considerable time in prayer. This takes place corporately, and individually throughout the week. We are not lost on the incredible thought that our King wants us to approach Him in petition, praise, and conversation. We have been invited to “pray about everything.” (Phillipians 4: 6-7)
