    Worship
    Worship at St. Philip seeks to embody the vision set forth in the Directory for Worship in the Presbyterian Church (USA):

Christian worship joyfully ascribes all praise and honor, glory and power to the triune God. In worship the people of God acknowledge God present in the world and in their lives. As they respond to God’s claim and redemptive action in Jesus Christ, believers are transformed and renewed. In worship the faithful offer themselves to God and are equipped for God’s service
in the world.

Services follow the classic order for worship in which we offer our praises and confessions, remember God’s forgiveness and love, respond with thanksgiving and hope. Then we are sent into God’s world with renewed commitments to follow in the way of Jesus Christ.

Additional midweek services enrich the seasons of Advent and Lent.

 
    Music  
    Music shapes our worship. Soloists and small ensembles
frequently lead the services, while The St. Philip Choir
sings weekly.
  Our bell choir, children’s choir, and youth choir also participate regularly. At both services the majestic Fritts organ lifts our hearts
and accompanies our songs.
   
 
    Children
   

When Children participate in and lead worship they feel they are a special and beloved part of their faith community and they begin to develop their own sense of what it means to be a child of God.

Opportunities abound for children and youth to take active roles in the life of worship at St. Philip as acolytes, liturgists and choir members. Please ask a pastor about these opportunities!

 

Sunday Worship and Children’s Chapel
All children are invited to sit with their families during worship. During the worship hour, there is a time just for children with the pastors. Worship bags as well as Children’s Bulletins are available in the Narthex for children who wish to remain in church.

On the 2nd and 4th Sundays, children, ages 4-1st Grade, are invited to a
special time of worship in the Children's Chapel during the 11 a.m. service.

Infants and children through three years of age are invited to play in the Nursery at any time during both services!
