Our Church Service Structure
We conduct our church services in participative and orderly manner.
In 1 Corinthians 14:26, Apostle Paul says, “What then shall we say, brothers and sisters? When you come together, each of you has a hymn, or a word of instruction, a revelation, a tongue or an interpretation. Everything must be done so that the church may be built up”. He also says in 1 Corinthians 14:40, “Let all things be done decently and in order”.
Our church services are comprised of the following aspects and stages in which we participate collectively, in the order given:
