Parkway is a family. We love
each other and try to fulfill each others needs as seen in the early
church. We also appreciate those who visit,
and we desire to adopt you into our family.
At
Parkway we take a slightly different approach to our Sunday gathering
time. Many churches gear their worship
to the visitors, but we gear our services toward our family. Just as friends are invited to family
gatherings, we too invite our friends and guests to be part of our weekly family reunion.
Each Sunday A.M. service will include
activities that were practiced weekly in the early church:
We will sing songs of praise. The songs
will be projected on screens and are easy to read; however, if you have
difficulty seeing the screen, you may request a songbook.
We will pray. Our services typically
begin and end with prayer. There will
also be prayers offered intermittently throughout the service.
We will observe
the Lord’s Supper. This memorial has been observed for almost
2000 years, since the establishment of Christ’s church. We continue the weekly fellowship by remembering
Christ’s sacrificed body and blood by partaking of emblems that represent
them.
We will
collect an offering. We could not accomplish what we do without a
collection of funds. The collection
allows us to carry on our local work as well as support many other wonderful
ministries.
Visitors should not feel obligated to make an offering
to support this family’s requirements; however, if you would like to assist in
our work, we appreciate your help.
We will have
a lesson. Each week we will have an encouraging message
from God’s Holy Word.
If you have any questions, concerns, or prayer
requests, please speak to an elder or one of the ministers. We will be honored to hear what you have to
say and hopefully welcome you as part of this wonderful family of God.
