Worship Series

Gathering & Gospelling, July 11 - August 15, 2021

'To create a space for this we will:
Ask you to pray in church and at home, for the Church and for all those we meet
Engage creatively in worship: some of the worship language and elements will be different; remember it's only six weeks
Spend some time reflecting on questions to ourselves during the prelude
Pray some more, lean on God, trust God wants this to be done
Participate in a community creating activity during worship
Study a verse at home: read it, journal it, draw it, memorize it, engage in a way that works for you!
Do some homework to continue your journey
