Worship at Woods
We consider worship to be the single most important event of each week for the Church. Consequently, we make every effort to provide worship which is inspiring, Biblical, and relevant to the challenges of every day life. Additional worship opportunities are scheduled on Christian holidays throughout the year (Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter sunrise, etc.)
-
Communion at 8:00 a.m. - An early morning service with time for meditation and prayer. This service always includes the Eucharist (Lord's Supper)
-
Traditional at 9:30 a.m. - Biblical, inspiring, and relevant to today's life. Often includes special music.
-
Contemporary 11:00 a.m. - This lively, family-friendly service features our worship band leading us in contemporary-style songs of praise.
The Cribbery is open during the 9:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. worship services and for many other special services.
The Joyful Noise Room at the back of the sanctuary, provides a space where little children can "sing and wiggle" and parents can worship without undue concern.
Coffee, tea, lemonade and bagels are served in the Fellowship Hall between each service...join us!
Holy Communion is celebrated each Sunday at the 8:00 a.m. service and often throughout the year at the other services, normally on the first Sunday of each season of the Church year, and on certain other special days. In the Presbyterian Church the Sacrament of Communion is open to all who claim Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. You do not need to be a member of this church to participate. Parents are encouraged to include their baptized children.
Baptism is a high moment in Christian life, one which we regard with both seriousness and joy. Presbyterians recognize baptisms performed in other Christian denominations as valid. Members who wish to have a child baptized at Woods attend a baptism instruction class. Baptism is celebrated at least 5 times throughout the year. Please call the Church office for more information.
