Informal Service

The Sunday morning 8:30 am service is designed to be a less formal service.

The congregation has the opportunity to choose some of the hymns that are sung
Several talented volunteer pianists share in providing accompaniment for this service
The Sacrament of communion is offered every Sunday
Lay leaders participate in the liturgies, prayers and serving of communion
A blend of traditional, gospel, and contemporary music is shared in the service

Join us for fellowship and refreshments right after the service. This "coffee hour" is a great way to get to know one another and touch base with those you haven't seen for a while.

Traditional Service

Our Sunday morning 11:00 am service is more traditional.

Lay leaders participate in leading the service
The hymns, songs, and specially prepared selections support the texts and topic of the day
The Chancel Choir, soloists, Children's Choirs, and instrumentalists provide musical leadership
Our fine pipe organ and grand piano provide excellent accompaniment augmented by other appropriate electronic and acoustic instruments
The congregation enjoys a blend of traditional and contemporary music as it supports the context of each worship service

Experience God's Love

Come and experience God's love on a personal basis believing that we are to love the Lord our God with all of our heart, mind, soul, and strength.

We invite you to come and worship God and to be a part of the Wallace Memorial Church family. We hope to see you soon!
