WORSHIP & CHRISTIAN LIFE

# What to Expect in Worship

We’d love to welcome you as we worship God and sing His praises together.

## Gathering to hear and respond

On Sundays we come together to worship God and hear His Word. The service includes Scripture, prayer, the singing of Psalms, and preaching. You do not need to know every part of the service before your first visit.

We meet at Discovery Point Church in Peoria. Sunday School begins at 1:00 PM and worship at 1:45 PM.

## Joining in with the congregation

Listen attentively, pray with us, and join the singing as you are able. If a tune is unfamiliar, listening while you learn is a good beginning. Worship is an opportunity for the whole congregation to participate.

Our singing is unaccompanied: you will hear the voices of the congregation singing the biblical Psalms.

## Listening to the Word

Bring a Bible if you have one and follow the passages as they are read and explained. Consider what the passage teaches about God, what it reveals about us, and how it calls us to trust and obey Christ.

Read [2 Timothy 3:16–17](https://biblia.com/bible/esv/2-timothy/3/16-17).

## Bring your questions

Families and visitors are welcome. Please speak with an elder before participating in the Lord’s Supper. If you have questions about your visit or our worship, we would be glad to talk.
