ONLINE WORSHIP
You are invited to join us online for worship anytime!
Whether you:
-
are exploring new places to worship
-
are traveling or home sick and can't join in person
-
live at a distance

ONLINE WORSHIP TIPS
Ways to help make online worship even more engaging
1
WORSHIP RESOURCE
The weekly worship resource is available for you to download as a PDF. This document has the whole worship flow, the entire liturgy, and music for you to follow along with just like our in-person worshipers receive. We encourage you to download this document as you worship online!

SPEAK THE WORDS
REMOVE DISTRACTIONS
Our online devices are often more than just a video screen. We constantly get notifications or are able to have multiple tabs open at once. We encourage you to set aside this time of worship to just be worship. Turn your phone to "do not disturb" mode, put away other devices, light a candle to center yourself and dedicate this time to truly be worshipful.
We know it can seem awkward and sometimes silly to repeat the words when you are worshiping online, BUT it is the way we participate in worship! We encourage you to speak the words outload as you would if you were in person. Know that your voice is joining the choir of other voices both in person and online and will make you feel like a part of the body.

PREPARE YOUR TABLE
You are invited to fully participate in communion with us! Before worship begins, set a table with some type of bread and juice or wine. It doesn't have to be fancy, your coffee table will do. When the time comes in worship you are invited to take the bread and wine, the body and blood of Christ.

USE YOUR TV

USE THE CHAT FUNCTION
There are many different ways you can view worship and the technology you have access to probably ranges from a cell phone to a smart TV. If possible, we encourage you to connect a device to your smart TV for larger more convenient viewing and to make everything feel larger and closer.
A large part of worship is the community we create when we share space together. The way we do that online is through the chat or comment functions! So go ahead, chat away! Share peace with one another, great one another, "Like" each others comments, and share your thoughts!
