Introduction

Because many people are somewhat anxious when they visit a church without knowing something about it, we have prepared this short article to help you understand more about us.

We truly hope that your life will be enriched by the worship services.  Since all we do is governed by the word of God, you will find us observing only those things contained in it.  We shall do our best to obey God's will by patterning our worship service after the early church of the bible.  You will find each of the following activities in our worship each week:

SINGING.  To many our song worship will be a highlight.  No man made instruments of music are used.  As Christians, we are commanded to sing and make melody in our heart - (Ephesians 5:19; Colossians 3:16).  Because of this, we feel it would be an addition to His will if we used instruments in the worship.  We encourage you to sing along with us.

TEACHING.  The teaching is designed to instruct and encourage all of us in the ways of righteousness.  You are invited to follow in the Bible as the teacher presents the lesson.  We trust that you will benefit from the lesson.

CONTRIBUTION.  The collection, or contribution, is taken only at Sunday worship service.  At this time each gives of his means as he has been prospered and as he has purposed in his heart - (1 Corinthians 16:1-2).  It is voluntary and is the sole means of financing the work by the congregation.

THE LORD'S SUPPER.  Communion is observed as it was the night of our Lord's betrayal.  The men at the table will give thanks for the bread and pass it on until the whole assembly has eaten.  They will then give thanks for the cup and pass it on until each Christian has drunk of the cup.  We repeat this each week. - (Acts 20:7).

PRAYER.  The prayers are designed to praise God and to communicate our thoughts to him.

You will never be embarrassed

At each service, an invitation song will be sung.  Those wishing to become Christians are invited to step forward and let their desires be known.  One who believes in Christ (Hebrews 11:6), repents of his sins (Luke 13:3), confesses Christ as Lord (Romans 10:9-10), is baptized into Christ (Galatians 3:26-27) and is added to the Church (Acts 2:47).  However, this action is voluntary.  You will never be singled out for public attention or embarrassment.

The people are Christians only

Many in America are searching for a church.  The confusions and division in the religious world has resulted in many names and creeds.  We have no creed but Christ, accept no book but the Bible, and wear no name but Christians.  We believe that when we follow the Bible only, we will be Christians only.

We are glad you are here

We feel a great joy in the Lord.  It is our desire that we could share it with everyone.  If you have any further questions or need some help that we can offer, please ask and we will help if we can.
