Why The Sunday Morning Church Service

By Eloise Hewitt


Every weekend millions of Christians gather to worship. This is in response to the call of the Lord Jesus Christ that even long after his demise, his disciples would continue with the gospel. In City Denver, CO Sunday morning church service typically start at eight or nine up to around midday. This time is convenient to most people.

Most of the ministries have submitted their maps on the internet to enable their potential followers to find them. In those blogs are also their profiles that can give a glimpse of their activities. Generally the procedure depends on the type of congregation that you attend. City Denver Co mainly has two types of churches; the denominational ones and the non-denominational ones.

The morning services in non-denominational churches are quite an experience. The worshippers are vibrant and highly joyful to receive all sorts of people without any restrictions. They work towards making everyone feel that they belong to the family of God. Right at the door stands a smartly dressed usher who is more than willing to welcome you with a warm hug and show you to your seat.

At the beginning of the program members are alerted to be on their feet and sing for The Lord. They normally begin with fast rhythm songs referred to as praise. The congregation is free to sing, jump and dance at will. The music is loud enough for everyone to hear. The beats are then slowed down to welcome a powerful worship session. Here the voice is soft with melodious overtones. These songs trigger emotions and lift your spirit to start praying.

This is the opportunity that the church leader, be it a pastor, reverend or bishop seizes to lead the crowd in repentance. He or she then prays for them asking God to have mercy and pour His favors on them. The whole congregation agrees to the prayer in solidarity by saying amen which means let it be so. This is shortly followed by announcements and then the preacher takes over and the drama begins. With calculated swerving moves and loud voice, the message is taken home to give way to the concluding prayer

The program officially begins when the praise and worship team tells the congregation to stand and join in the singing. Most of the time they start with fast beats which they call praise. These are received by the audience through jumping, dancing and singing their throats out. The rhythm then slows down and culminates into slow beats and melodious vocals that are called worship. This takes everybody in the building to a prayerful mood.

As the praying continues the pastor climbs the podium and starts praying loudly. The others stop praying and say Amen after every statement made by the pastor. After the prayer there can be announcements and then new members are welcomed. This is followed by the preaching of the word. Most ministers of Gospel in these churches are radical and make many physical movements accompanied by a loud voice. When the preaching ends they pray to sum up the service.

No matter the type of church you decide to visit, it is a nice experience. You will feel peaceful within you and forget the struggles of life, at least for a moment. It is good for believers to commune every Sunday to worship the creator. This is also a perfect moment to seek forgiveness of sin and give life a new turn.
