WORSHIP SERVICES

The worship services at First United Methodist Church of Washington MO, welcome you to worship our Lord Jesus Christ. If you are a traditionalist, you will find our 9:00am Traditional Service uplifting and gratifying. If you are new to seeking something better out of life or prefer an uplifting praise and worship style, try our 11:00am Contemporary Service. Below you will find brief descriptions of these services.

And again, Welcome to your service.

Traditional Service at 9:00am

    This service follows the traditions of the Methodist Church in the elements of worship and songs from the Methodist Hymnal. Occasionally songs will be taken from the more modern song book "The Faith We Sing".

    The traditional elements you will find in this service are:

•         Processional
•         Welcome and Greeting
•         Morning Prayer
•         Scripture Reading
•         Sermon based on the scripture
•         Offering
•         Communion (First Sunday of Each Month)
•         Sending Forth

Contemporary Worship at 11:00am

    This service is a praise and worship service based around contemporary music. It is designed to bring the word of God to each of us in a way where it fits into our every day lives. Since music is the basis for the worship, the order of worship elements changes to fit the topic of the message for the day and wrap around the song selections. You will find that the words of the uplifting music punctuate the day's message for our lives.

    The music you will hear and sing will be the same as you hear on Christian Radio today. We strive to sing current songs that are relevant to our lives and praise Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.

    It is the hope of the Contemporary Praise Team that you find our service one where you are able to have a God Experience and say, WOW when you leave, taking something with you into life.
