SUNDAY MORNING WORSHIP

 
 
WHAT IS THE SUNDAY MORNING WORSHIP SERVICE LIKE? 
 
 
Our service includes prayer, liturgy, scripture reading, a message, and music. You can join us either in-person or online.
 
We include a mix of traditional hymns and praise songs. Our choir sings most Sundays. Occasionally, guest instrumentalists also play during the worship service. 
 
On the first Sunday of every month during August – May, we enjoy a churchwide fellowship breakfast before worship sponsored by the Men’s Group. During the summer, we have a cafe style worship with breakfast every Sunday! The breakfast begins at 10:30am in the sanctuary which also doubles as our fellowship space. 
 
We also serve Holy Communion the first Sunday of the month.  We serve communion by intinction which means that the pastor or lay server will hand you a piece of bread to be dipped in a common cup.  Individually packaged wafer and juice sets are also available for those who prefer to not receive communion by intinction. Gluten free bread is provided for those with gluten sensitivities. 
 
As far as dress is concerned, come to worship dressed in whatever makes you comfortable. You will see everything from business casual to jeans and a t-shirt. 
 
FOR THE CHILDREN
 
 
Brooks UMC is happy to welcome children into our Worship Services. In the sanctuary, we have a designated space called the “Prayground”. During Pastor Lesley’s sermon, children are invited to the Prayground to participate with a Children’s Leader in some fun, hands on arts and crafts or other activities which are related to the worship theme of the day. We also have some fidget busters such as play dough, pop it toys, coloring sheets, and other items to help with the worship wiggles. In a culture where age separation is prevalent, encouraging all ages to worship together is a way to reflect the Kingdom of God and allows children the opportunity to be fully engaged in the church community. We believe that families worshiping together” and “all generations worshiping together” are essential for Christian faith formation.

Living on a Prayer – The Lord’s Prayer as a Way of Life

         Prayer is more than just words we say—it effects                       the way we live. 

When Jesus’ disciples asked, “Lord, teach us to pray,” He didn’t just give them a prayer to recite; He gave them a way to connect with God, align their hearts with God’s will, and live in daily dependence on God’s presence

This Lent, we will journey through the Lord’s Prayer, exploring how each part of this familiar prayer shapes our faith, our trust, and our daily walk with Christ. Through Jesus’ words, we will discover that prayer is not just a spiritual discipline—it’s at the foundation of a transformed life.

Join us as we learn to ask, seek, and knock—not just in moments of need, but as a rhythm of life. Because when we living on a prayer, the Lord’s Prayer, we live in the presence, power, and provision of God.
