Traditional Worship
11 AM Every Sunday in the Sanctuary
Our main worship service is “traditional” - you’ll hear an organ and piano, a choir will lead congregational singing from the hymnal, the congregation engages in various forms of liturgy through prayers, confession, and affirmation of faith, scripture is read, a sermon is preached based on the scriptural text, and the Sacraments (Baptism and Communion) are celebrated.
Unlike many protestant churches, we serve communion every week. We practice communion by intinction, where worshipers come forward (or we’ll come to you if your mobility is limited) and receive bread and dip it into a common cup (individual portions are also available for those uncomfortable with intinction). All are welcome to partake in the Sacrament no matter which church holds your membership, your age, or your level of faith. If you wish to learn more about the Christian faith, you are welcome to meet with Rev. Wes Pitts at your convenience.
For families with children, a kid’s space/nursery is provided from 10:45-noon, staffed with a paid employee and volunteers. While you’re welcome to take your children before worship begins, they’re also welcome to stay for the first portion of the service through the Children’s sermon and then go with the other kids. For those children who remain in the sanctuary during the worship service, packages with crayons, coloring books, and more are available. An additional option for children and their parents during the worship service is our pray-ground, located in the north parlor (connected to the sanctuary). The open doors of the pray-ground allow parents to enjoy the worship service while their children quietly play with the many creative materials available to them there.

“In gratitude to God, empowered by the Spirit, we strive to serve Christ in our daily tasks and to live holy and joyful lives, even as we watch for God’s new heaven and new earth praying, ‘Come, Lord Jesus.’”
