SUNDAY MORNING WORSHIP
Every Sunday morning, we gather as a local assembly of God’s people.  The dress is casual, and ALL are welcome to come and hear the good news of the Lord Jesus Christ whether already a Christian or not.

Childcare
At Grace Life, we encourage parents to bring their children into our worship services.  We love to see the whole family worshiping together and consider the presence of children to be a sign of a healthy congregation (Deut.31:9-13; Josh.8:35; 2 Chron.20:13; Neh.12:43; Mark 10:13-16; Eph.6:1-3; Col.3:20).  If a child happens to become “unsettled” during worship, our Fellowship Area outside the Auditorium is available as a temporary space for parents to console their children so that they may then return to the worship service.

We do provide childcare during the Sunday morning worship service in our Nursery for children birth-3 years for those families that may need this.  All children’s workers undergo a thorough background check.  And the nursery is also available for moms to use for nursing or diaper changes.

Ordinary Means of Grace
Our desire is to worship God in the fullness of His glory.  We strive to include the following five Ordinary Means of Grace each week for the purpose of glorifying God and enjoying Him as His people.

  1. Reading the Word: Worship centered on God’s Word is key to keeping God at the center of our worship as the corporate Body of Christ and as an individual member of His Body (1 Tim.4:13).

  2. Praying the Word: God speaks to us through His Word, and prayer is our request for Him to give us understanding of what He has said and the grace to respond with faith and repentance (Jn.15:7; Acts 4:24-30).

  3. Singing the Word: Singing songs saturated with sound theology and biblical experiences of our faith in God serve to remind us of His glory and goodness and give us a meaningful way of expressing our thanks to Him for who He is and all that He has done.  At Grace Life, we sing songs old and new (Ps.119:172; Eph.5:19; Col.3:16).

  4. Preaching the Word: We preach the Scriptures expositionally.  Expository preaching is the study of Scripture verse by verse and letting the main truths of a passage serve as the main points of the sermon.  We normally preach through books of the Bible and alternate between the Old and New Testament books, but we occasionally preach “topical” series that approach the Bible expositionally (2 Tim.4:1-5).

  5. Seeing the Word: We observe the two biblical ordinances of Communion and Baptism that serve as biblical signs of our covenant relationship with God through His Son, Jesus Christ.  In Communion (on the first Sunday of each month), we see the visible reminder of the broken body and shed blood of Jesus on the cross for our sins.  In Baptism, we see the visible reminder of the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ; and simultaneously, we see the visible reminder of the death and burial of our old selves and the resurrection of our new selves through the washing away of our sins through faith in the finished work of Christ.  These signs are a display of the beauty and power of the gospel that serve two purposes: (1) The renewal of the Christian’s faith; and (2) A call to lost sinners to repent and believe the gospel.
