Christian worship gives all glory and honor, praise and thanksgiving to the holy, triune God. We are gathered in worship to glorify the God who is present and active among us— particularly through the gifts of Word and Sacrament. We are sent out in service to glorify the same God who is present and active in the world.
The Book of Order
If the church’s congregation is the Body of Christ, then worship is certainly our heartbeat. We gather on Sundays and other special days of the year to worship God, and to be strengthened for service through prayer, scripture, preaching, and the sacraments of Baptism and Communion. Worship always ends by sending us back into the world to live as faithful disciples.
Music
Music and singing are instrumental in our worship. The whole congregation participates in worship through song; however, our choir and organist augments that singing with anthems and other service music. If you’d like to join our choir, show up for rehearsal at 8:45 AM on Sunday mornings.
The Work of the People
Worship in our tradition is not a performance of the musicians or preacher. Worship is the work of the whole congregation before God. Learn how you can serve in worship.
