Worship Ministry

At Immanuel, we have found that people come to church for different reasons: Some are joyful, some sad. Some are angry. Some seek peace or healing. Whether or not we are aware of it, all of us are seeking connection with God through the corporate worship experience.

Authentic worship, a fresh encounter with God, results in our transformation as individuals and as a church body. When we meet God in worship and are overwhelmed with gratitude and joy for what God is doing and has already done through Jesus Christ, we are changed. Our celebration and service to others are natural outgrowths of that experience.

We believe that our worship is initiated by God. God reveals Godself and we respond to that revelation. And we are intentional about worship. There are many pathways to God, so during our services we seek to offer a variety of ways to help people connect—perhaps through praise, scripture, prayers, offerings or other worship elements.

Our corporate worship is unlike worship anywhere else! This is because each person in our diverse congregation contributes a unique “flavor” to every worship experience.

Our Sunday schedule regularly includes two worship services. Neither can be characterized by popular terminology, yet they are designed to be very different from each other:

• Early Service (8:30 am) – “informal,” shorter service, often includes choruses and DVD’s
• Morning Worship (10:30 am) – usually includes Sanctuary Choir, Children’s Feature, hymns

We hope that you will join with us in worship each Sunday. You’ll find that our congregation is warm, friendly…and enthusiastic about praising the Lord together!
