Giving
You can expect us to give a free-will offering. As the Bible teaches, we give liberally as God has prospered us, on the first day of the week. (I Cor. 16:1-2) Our liberality is an evidence of our devotion to God. (II Cor.8:1-8) There are many factors that determine the amount of our offerings, but above all they must be free-will offerings.(II Cor. 9:6-7)
When the offering is taken, it is entirely the choice of our guest whether they will give offering or not. We will not embarrass you by personally asking for an offering. Neither do we want you to feel embarrassed if you choose not to or cannot afford to give.

Prayer
You can expect our pubic prayers to be led by men. (I Tim. 2:8·18) Prayer is a vital source of strength in a Christian’s life. We pray often in private and with one another. When we come together in an assembly, prayer is a very important part of our worship. Prayers are offered frequently when we assemble together for worship. In keeping with an orderly fashion of worship, it is usually announced that we will be led in prayer by a certain brother, everyone does not pray his own prayer out loud. We are led in prayer by a brother who speaks his prayer publicly, and the rest of us follow him silently as we pray together. This allows us to worship reverently and orderly. It also avoids noise and confusion. You will not be embarrassed by our calling on you to lead a public prayer.

Singing
You can expect congregational singing. Singing is a vital part of our worship. All members of our congregation will blend their voices together in psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. The purpose of our songs is to praise God, to teach and admonish one another through our singing. (Eph. 5:19; Col. 3:16)
Since the command to sing is specific and addressed to the individual, we do not add a mechanical instrument of music in our worship in songs. For the same reason we do not have choirs to sing for us or any type of mood music to entertain us. Many who have visited us have been highly impressed with the beauty and spirituality involved in congregational singing. Why not come and see for yourself​.

The Lord's Supper
You can expect us to partake of the Lord’s Supper on the first day of every week. (Sunday) Jesus instituted this supper as a sample memorial of his death on the cross. (Mt.26:26-29; I Cor. 11:23-26) As we partake of the unleavened bread and fruit of the vine our minds are to be centered on the events of the cross. In this act we have communion or fellowship with Christ. II Cor.10:16) It was the practice of the early church to eat the Lord’s Supper every first day of the week. (Acts 20:7) We do not practice closed communion. As the communion is passed to each individual in the assembly, we each examine ourselves that we may partake of it in a worthy manner. II Cor.11:2?·29) We do not examine, encourage or forbid any guest concerning his participation in the Lord’s Supper.It is the choice of our guest. However, we would hasten to point out that there can be no communion or fellowship with Christ unless we are faithful children of God. (1 Jn. 1:5-7: Gal. 3:26·27)

Teaching
You can expect Christ-centered Bible teaching in our classrooms and pulpits. We believe the Bible to be an inspired, authoritative book. (II Tim. 3:16-17) We believe that if a man speaks it should be from the Word of God. (I Pet. 4:11). Our Bible class teachers usually teach directly from the Bible.The sermons you will hear from our pulpits can be supported by the Bible. In most sermons scripture references are given to enable the listener to check the Bible for himself to see if we are speaking the truth. We encourage you to check what we say by searching the scripture. (Acts 17:11;Jn. 5:39)

In Closing
At the close of each sermon you can expect an invitation to become a Christian. You will be given an opportunity to express your faith in Jesus Christ by repenting of your sins, confessing Christ before men and being buried with the Lord in baptism. (Cf. Jn. 8:24; Lk.13:3; Mt. 10:32: Mk. 16:16: Acts 2:38; Gal.3:26·27) We will not embarrass you by approaching you personally. We will make our appeal to you to become a Christian from the pulpit. Then an invitation song will be sung for your encouragement.

If you choose to obey the Lord, you may come to the front and let your choice be known. May we point out that the church does not have to be assembled for you to obey the gospel? You can obey at any hour of the day or night by simply letting your request be known. (Cf. Acts 16:30-33)

Since you now know much of what to expect when you visit the churches of Christ, why not accept our special invitation to visit us. We would consider it an honor to have you as our guest.
