We seek to preach and to practice a religion devoted to justice and peace, responsive to truth with concern for the spiritual growth of all persons.

Worship is scheduled at 10:00 - 11:00 AM each Sunday. Sunday School for adults and children is offered from 9:00 - 10:00. During worship hours, childcare (infants through kindergarten) is provided for those who desire to use it.

A NURSERY FOR SMALL CHILDREN
During worship hours, childcare is provided for children (infants through kindergarten). The nursery is located on the south side of the education wing at the end of the west hallway. Throughout the year, parents will bring young children for dedication. The dedication is a part of the worship service. It is a time for parents to give thanks for the birth of their child and for the congregation to commit itself to providing nurture, love, and support for the child and their parents.

SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASSES
Sunday School classes (adult, senior high, junior high, elementary, kindergarten and preschool) meet at 9:00 AM. Just ask for directions and members will be glad to help you find your Sunday School class. Our youth and children's Sunday School program runs from the Sunday following Labor Day until the Sunday preceding Memorial Day. Appropriate ages are combined during summer.


We close the Ministers prayer each week with all worshipers joining to recite the THE LORD'S PRAYER as follows:

OUR FATHER, WHO ART IN HEAVEN, HALLOWED BE THY NAME.
THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE, ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN.
GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD,
AND FORGIVE US OUR DEBTS, AS WE FORGIVE OUR DEBTORS;
AND LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION, BUT DELIVER US FROM EVIL,
FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM AND THE POWER AND THE GLORY, FOREVER. AMEN.

The "debts/debtor" wording comes from the Revised Standard Version of the Scripture.

THE LORD'S SUPPER
Our congregation celebrates the Lord's Supper every Sunday. We practice open communion, which means it is not necessary to belong to this congregation to take communion. Both the bread and the cup will be passed to you in the pew. Please take each as it is passed to you and return the cup to the tray. The first Sunday of the month homebound communion is taken to persons unable to attend services. Church services are provided at Macon Health Care Center that same Sunday at 1:30 PM.
