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.  It is a time for renewal, but it is also a time for making connections between our faith in Jesus Christ and the challenges of our lives.  It is a time in which we seek the presence of God, but it is also a time of fellowship with each other.   It is a time to learn, but also a time to give joyful praise for God's goodness and love.

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

 SUNDAY WORSHIP (September 9, 2007- May 25, 2008)

9:00 AM   WORSHIP in a traditional style, with music from the Adult Choir

11:15 AM  WORSHIP in a more contemporary and informal style, with praise songs as well as some hymns, a variety of instruments, and sometimes our Westminster Worship Band.

Children of all ages are welcome in worship, but if desired, nursery care is available for infants and toddlers between 8:45 am and 12:30 pm each Sunday.

COMMUNION   is served on the first Sunday of each month at both services.  Presbyterians practice open communion, which means that all Christians of any faith tradition are invited to partake.



CHILDREN AND WORSHIP   9:00 AM & 11:15 AM
Their own worship experience for children ages 4 through 3rd grade, held three Sundays each month, introduces young people to the language and stories of faith.
