WORSHIP at WESTMINSTER

Ascribe to the Lord the glory of his name; worship the Lord in holy splendor.  Psalm 29:2

Worship is at the heart of our life together as the community  of faith. 
Worship is about... renewal.  It's also about making connections between our faith in Jesus Christ and llife's challenges.  Worship is about seeking the presence of God ....it's also time together as a community of faith.    
Worship is for learning ... and also for giving joyful praise to God.

 

At Westminster, plan our worship services to have a balance between tradition and freshness.  We involve people of all ages. Through scripture, music, preaching, prayer, and the visual arts, worshipers are challenged, encouraged, and involved.
