"Who Are You?" We are one congregation of the church of
Jesus Christ. We are not "What Do You Do?" In addition to the expected worship services and Bible classes, we are involved in ministry projects at home and away. We operate a "Clothing Closet" for people in need of replacement clothing. We also operate a Food Pantry for those in dire emergency. We help support three children's homes Westview Boys Home, Hope Harbor Children's Home and Tipton Children's Home , an adoption service Christian Services of Oklahoma, a Christian camp Camp Blue Haven . We also help support Mission work in the United States (Colorado) as well as in Cancun, Mexico and Nicaragua. "What Can I Expect?" When you visit the Church of Christ at Seminole, you will find friendly people, eager to help you find your way around the building and get acquainted. We offer Bible classes for all ages from 3 months up. Each of these classes, for children or adults, focuses on the Holy Bible and how God's word applies to our lives every day. "What Do I Do In Worship?" When visiting a worship service for the first time, many people are nervous about making a mistake-perhaps standing at the wrong time, or making an incorrect response. That is a very unlikely accident to happen in our worship, so relax! For example, songbooks are furnished for every pew, and the song numbers will be announced prior to singing. Time is allowed for all to turn to the proper location. We encourage you to sing with us, blending your voice with ours in praise to God. The communion bread and fruit of the vine will be passed to you and you will have opportunity to participate or merely pass the items on, depending on your conscience. A collection is taken, but you need not feel obligated to contribute. Its members support the church and, as a guest, you are welcome merely to pass the plate to your neighbor. The sermon will be based on Bible truth and be designed to help you live for Jesus Christ each day. The worship service lasts only one hour, but may have eternal effects on you! Please blend your heart and mind with ours as we offer up prayers and petitions to God. And feel free to ask anyone any questions you might have! God bless you and keep you! "All the churches of Christ send greetings" (Rom. 16:16 NIV). |
affiliated with any denomination but, instead, seek only to be Christians.
We are part of a fellowship of over two million Christians in over
13,000 congregations in the U.S. alone, with sister congregations on
every inhabited continent of the world. Its own elders, in harmony with
the New Testament, govern each congregation. We do not acknowledge the
authority of man-made creeds or documents, but instead follow the New
Testament as our only rule of faith and practice. We want to speak where
the Bible speaks and be silent where the Bible is silent. We want
to know God's will and live it in our lives.
