What To Expect 期待される事:
Our worship gathering starts at 2:00 and ends at 3:30. 私達の教会の礼拝は午後2時に始まり、午後3時半に終了します。Come earlier to meet us and quiet your hearts before worship. We encourage you to stay for fellowship after the worship.
worship consists of 礼拝の内容:
Call to Worship |
Our worship starts with reading of God’s Word and prayer, to center on God who calls us to worship Him.
Worship in Songs |
Our songs are generally modern praise and contemporary hymns, with rich gospel-centered content. While we have excellent musicians, music is there to serve the voice of our congregation,“addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs” (Eph. 5: 19).
Prayer of Confession |
Without idolizing traditions, we also root ourselves in historic gospel truths. We confess with our mouths what we believe in our hearts about who Jesus is, what He has done for us, and is doing in us through His Spirit.
Worship in Sermon |
Our worship continues with a 35 min gospel-centered expository sermon / teaching. Generally, we go through entire Books of the Bible throughout the year as a regular diet. Occasionally there is a thematic or stand-alone sermon on Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter, Father’s Day or when there’s a guest speaker or a special need etc. Watch sermons here.
Worship in Offering |
Offerings are one of the ways that Christians worship and respond to God’s graciousness in generosity. You are not obligated to give if you are not a Christian. If you’d like to understand what tithing is, please read our blog here.
Benediction |
Our worship ends with Congregational prayer/ the Lord’s prayer/ benediction (a prayer of blessing) spoken over us from God’s Word. Just as God calls us to worship we are sent out into the world to live out the Gospel in our homes, neighborhoods and workplaces.
Communion |
Communion is celebrated once every month. If you’re new to Christianity and have not openly professed Christ, please let the Communion pass. While Christians are receiving the Communion, we encourage you to consider Christ and His saving work, and what it means for you.
After the Worship gathering, you may stay to meet others for encouragements, prayer needs, or join a Dinner Fellowship group.
Other times, we have Gospel Formation Group (Leadership Training). If you’d like to join this group, please take the first step of becoming a covenant member and fill out the form on our membership page.
