Memorial Presbyterian Church Worship begins each Sunday at 10:55 A.M. Sunday School begins at 9:30 A.M. with Fellowship Time (cookies, coffee, juice) at 10:30 A.M.
BULLETINS: Each service is built around the Bible passages from the Common Lectionary. The Common Lectionary passages for a given Sunday ordinarily include an old Testament reading plus a Psalm, a new Testament Epistle reading and a Gospel reading. The Common Lectionary includes Year A, B and C; after the three-year cycle the same readings are repeated. The Sunday Worship Service begins with a "Welcome". In each Sunday's "Welcome" the worship theme is introduced. The theme is developed through hymns, anthems, prayers and sermon. Memorial has planned worship through the work of a Worship Team since the fall of 1996. The Worship Team includes the Pastor, the Director of Music, the Organist and three laypersons not on staff. Besides planning services which attempt to embody the Sunday's theme in a creative and responsible manner, the Worship Team invites layperson (including youth and children) to lead the service. On a typical Sunday one layperson will do the "Welcome" ,one will lead the "Call to Worship" and other parts that immediately follow, and one other layperson will read one or more passages of scripture.
