Our Committment to Worship
 Jed and Ted Loder together share a moment at convocation service, 2002
|
Worship is the central shared experience of our church life. We have two Sunday morning
services-an 8:00 am service in the chapel, and a 10:00 am service in
the sanctuary with an average attendance of about 230 adults and
children. Excellence in preaching and music is a hallmark of South
Church, and the sacraments of communion and baptism are administered on
a regular basis. Special seasonal observances such as the Easter Vigil
and the Christmas Eve services are important expressions of me faith of
the congregation.Learn more about our worship service at our Worship 411 page.

The Sunday School
program for nursery through eighth grade meets during the 10:00
service, with children usually joining their parents in worship before
going to their classes. South Church recognizes that individuals
proceed by their own paths in their faith journeys, and efforts are
made to provide opportunities to explore the meanings of our faith
through Bible studies, retreats and other activities in addition to
morning worship. We encourage our members to recognize their own gifts
and to use them in ministry within the church and in the greater
community.
