WORSHIP FAQ
How long is the worship service and what happens?
The worship service lasts about an hour. After we sing several songs the children are invited forward for a short children’s message. Pastor then shares a message for today’s living from the Scriptures (about 25 minutes long) that applies God’s Word to our everyday lives.
What about communion?
We celebrate communion on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month at both services. Anyone with a humble and thankful heart for the Lord is invited to come forward and receive communion.
Do you take an offering?
The Sunday offering is an opportunity for members and regular attenders to give. As a guest, please do not feel an obligation to give anything; your attendance is gift enough. You can also donate online by clicking HERE.
What do kids do in worship?
Community of Hope offers a Sunday morning children’s ministry from September through May. We have one worship service at 10 am. About 15 minutes into the worship service there will be a children’s message, a time for kids to come forward for a few minutes to hear a special message designed for them. Then they can join their parents again, or kids are invited to head out for children’s ministry activities. Children from 3 years old through 5th grade participate in Kids Church Sunday School classes. Children under 3 years old have childcare available. During Kids Church they experience age-appropriate lessons using Bible stories, music, crafts, and games. Kids Church is open to all children at any stage in their Christian education. All of our volunteers and staff are trained and background checked.
What happens at Community of Hope from Memorial Day through Labor Day?
Over the summer join us from 9-9:45 am for breakfast. We have one worship service at 10 am. There is also childcare available.
