Worship is the most
important thing we do as a congregation. As a family of believers we are
called to set apart time each week to praise, thank and honor God
through worship.
CHPC holds similar
worship services at 8:30 and 11:00 AM each Sunday during the school
year. From Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day we hold one
worship service at 9:30 AM.
Worship includes prayers, the reading of
scripture, a special message to the children, the pastor's sermon to interpret the scripture, and music.
Our music is in the form of hymns from the Presbyterian Hymnal, praise
songs from a book called Renew, and anthems sung or played by our
choirs or guest musicians. Services begin with a prelude, and end with a postlude -
usually played on our magnificent Schantz pipe organ. Our style is
usually what would be called "traditional." A bulletin is provided
for each service to guide worshippers through the service.
