About the changes to Sundays starting September 7

 
 

We are taking another step toward fulfilling God's vision to Share God's Hope starting September 7. One of our core values always has been "faith in action" but it is time to put this value into practice Sunday mornings.

As a way to think about Sunday Mornings, three key words describe our focus: Learn, Serve and Praise. Each child, youth and adult, will be challenged to come Sunday morning to Learn, Serve and Praise.

Sunday School for all ages is where we will Learn.

We come together to Praise as we worship.

Serve may be a new thought but each child. youth and adult must find a place to Serve Sunday mornings as well. Many serve already in the choir, as greeters or teachers but serving is more than just making Sunday mornings happen. Serving is how we put our faith in action. We will not grow spiritually unless we serve. So each Sunday morning, we will come to Learn and Praise but also to Serve. How will this Learn. Serve and Praise work?

Praise

 
 

We will offer a new worship service at 9:30 in addition to the services we already offer at 8:15 and 10:45. The message will be the same at each service, but each will be anchored by a different music and worship leadership.

The choir will continue to sing at the 8:15 service.

The 9:30 service will have a worship leader and piano.

The 10:45 Service will have a worship team. piano and perhaps other instruments as well.

Come and Praise God!

Learn

 
 

We will continue to offer Sunday school for Children, Youth and Adults at 9:30 but we are expanding our Adult studies to offer classes during the 10:45 hour as well.

Youth Sunday School will continue at 9:30am.

Watch for more information about new adult classes.

Serve

 
 

There will be many opportunities to serve in Worship as Greeters, Ushers. Musicians, and Tech & Sound team members at all services.

We are also growing in Sunday School and we need teachers to help our children and youth Learn how to live as a Christians in our world today. We need our best teachers committed to investing in our children and youth now.

Another way to Serve will be at eKids SERVE. Would you like to help with music? Are you artistic? Do you like to build sets for programs? Would you like to work with puppets? (We have really great puppets not used PLUS we even have pre-recorded skits to help us get started) Mission Projects? eKids PRAISE offers places to serve with greeters and the tech team. plus set up and tear down teams will be needed each week.

Serving may be as simple as welcoming guests or helping quickly "pick-up" the sanctuary after the first and second service.

Always, the best way to serve is prayer. praying for services in the prayer room during services or with folks after each service.

Please consider how God wants you to Learn, Serve and Praise!
