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 Gospel-centered content. While we desire excellent musicians, our music serves 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 together 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, and will do at His return.
Worship in Sermon |
Our worship continues with a 35—40 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 series and 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 Gospel-motivated tithing is, please read our blog here.
Benediction | SENDING
Our worship ends with a benediction (a blessing) spoken over us, followed by Congregational prayer/ the Lord’s prayer. Just as God calls us to worship we are sent out into the world to live out the truths of 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 Lunch fellowship group.
Other times, we have Gospel Formation Group (Leadership Training). If you’d like to join this group, please start the process of becoming a Covenant Member (see membership page).
