Worship is the first priority and calling of the Church of God. Everything we are, do, and say flows from, and into, our worship.
Our Worship revolves around the two great traditions of Christian worship, The Sacrament of the Eucharist, and the daily engagement with Scripture in the Daily Offices of Morning and Evening Prayer.
