Why The Sunday Morning Church Service

By Eloise Hewitt


Most Christians gather every weekend to worship God. This is in line with the divine commandment. The essence of man is to be a worshipper of Him who created the universe and gave man dominion over it. When in the City Denver CO it would be worthwhile to attend a Sunday morning church service in one of the many establishments that are available.

To give a sense of direction, there are maps in the net that can assist you in locating a church of your choice. Also in the net are brief descriptions of the activities that take place in these houses of God on weekly basis. The schedule differs according to the principals that are laid by the particular establishment. In City Denver there are basically two categories of churches; non-denominational and 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.

There are roughly three scripture readings. The padre then guides some orchestrated prayer sessions characterized by him saying some words and the audience making uniform replies. Women clergy are not allowed in these churches. The preaching is done in slow speech to bring a feeling of humility. Calmness and composure is expected of the congregation.

Majority of citizens in City Denver Colorado attend the non-denominational churches. However, the type notwithstanding, it is important to belong to a community of believers. Your spiritual needs will thus be met and you will feel that there are others standing by you. There is therefore no excuse for you not attending a service this Sunday morning.
