Giving

​Giving is part of our response of love and gratitude to God.  This participation allows us to do more together than any one of us can do on our own while showing our commitment to the congregation and its goals.

  • Each of our activities and ministries are funded by the free-will contributions of our members.
  • Any gift given to the church should be given freely, not because of expectations or pressures.

Service

  • When worshipping with us you can expect an hour long worship service that involves common people worshipping a holy and loving God.
  • Our worship assembly is Christ centered and God focused and aimed at bringing God honour and glory. God is our audience and we gather as a church to worship Him.
  • We seek to know who God is and what He desires from our worship of Him, which is why we use the slogan “Knowing God and Making Him Known”. Our understanding of God (Theology, meaning the study of God) guides our worship of Him.
  • Our worship of God will include a message from God’s word (the Bible), praying, singing, sharing in communion (Lord’s supper) and collecting of an offering

PREACHING
Preaching is centred on God’s Word; the Bible.

  • Through preaching we are taught about God and His will for our lives.
  • We encourage people to follow along in their Bibles.
  • If you have any questions about the lesson, please ask.

BIBLE
Bible reading allows us to listen to God’s instructions to us.

  • The reading normally relates to the morning’s lesson.
  • We most often use the NIV translation.

DID YOU KNOW?
The Bible is a unified book written over 1500 years, by 40 different authors, ranging from Kings to farmers, on three different continents, in three different languages.

PRAYER
Prayer is a very important aspect of our relationship with God in expressing our hearts to Him.

  • Those leading public prayer most often use their own words and thoughts.

SINGING
We sing here – “Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord” Eph. 5:19

  • Everyone is encouraged to sing.
  • We are “a cappella” (meaning unaccompanied).
  • Why?
  • CONSIDER: Jesus raising from the dead changed everything!
  • God took away the physical items of worship: the temple, blood sacrifice, incense, and musical instruments.
  • God calls us as New Testament believers to internalize these.
  • We, the church, are the temple of God.
  • Jesus’ blood was sacrificed once – for all.
  • Our prayers are incense to God.
  • Our voices and hearts are the instruments praising God.
  • Singing is a command from God.
  • Singing is to teach
  • Singing is to praise and worship

  • THE LORD’S SUPPER
    The Lord’s Supper is a memorial of Jesus’ great love for us in His sacrifice on the cross. The Lord’s Supper is the focal point of our worship service, and because of its importance and meaning, we observe the Lord’s Supper every Sunday.

  • Why?
  • CONSIDER: In the Upper Room during the Jewish feast of Passover, Jesus taught His disciples, and apostle Paul summaries for us…
  • “For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: that the Lord Jesus, on the night He was betrayed, took bread, and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.” For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes.” 1 Corinthians 11:23-26
  • (Matthew 26:26-30; Mark 14:22-26; Luke 22:14-23)

  • We pass trays of unleavened bread (kind of like pie crust) and each Christian breaks off and eats a small piece, reminding us of His body as it hung on the cross.
  • We pass trays with small cups of grape juice that each Christian drinks, reminding us of His blood that was shed for our sins.
  • The Lord’s Supper is a time for meditation and self-examination.
  • The trays are passed to everyone, though each person chooses whether to partake.
  • “Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. Each one must examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body eats and drinks judgment on himself.”1 Corinthians 11:27-29
  • DID YOU KNOW?
    The first disciples met on the first day of the week to break bread.  “On the first day of the week we came together to break bread.”  Acts 20:7

    Men lead our services.

  • Christ is the Head of the Church.
  • God created men and women equal with different roles and responsibilities.
  • Adam was created first and given the role of leadership, Eve was created to complete him.
