10:30 WORSHIP Service
Gathering
We
gather to worship the One who has been revealed to us.
We put our faith, hope, and trust in the God who raised Christ
from the dead and gave him glory. We worship as those who
have been born anew, as those who demonstrate obedience and
love. We worship because our eyes have been opened and we
have seen the Lord.
