Church services

Community Service is not strange to me because I have been doing community service at Northview Church since the beginning of my sophomore year in high school. When I saw the assignment that I have to complete 4 hours of community services, I knew that Northview church was my first choice. Northview church was found by Tommy Paino in October 1980. There were only 30 people in the cafeteria of Carmel Elementary School where they formed the church which later become Northview Church. Three years later

When I first was told that I would be spending a part of my weekend at Holy Hill and at a church service, I was less than thrilled to say the least, but I must admit after capping it off with a burrito or two it turned out to be an enjoyable adventure. After spending the past fifteen years of my life going through Catholic education classes and the ritual of Sunday mass, I admit that I never paid much attention to the things that you have asked me to observe here today. I guess I just never took

whole experience was outside of my cultural norms, I found that the church service was specifically unlike anything I had ever experienced before. The church located on the campus of Mission of Hope: Haiti, was constructed in the form of a crucifix. I honestly had no idea what to expect from the Sunday morning church service. Before the church service began, my friend and her family made sure that I took my own bible and journal to church, since the message was spoken in Haitian Creole. I knew that we

For this assignment I attended a church service at Our Savior Lutheran Church in Plantation. Walking into the church there are rows of pews, and at the end of the isle stands the alter, to the left, there was a candle, which signifies the presence of the Holy Spirit. Above the alter hung a cross, which symbolizes the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. In a Protestant church one will never see a crucifix, which means they do not have the body of Jesus hanging on the cross. The reason for

Intro In this paper I have invited my wife’s Abuela to our church one Sunday morning and I will be observing and asking her questions after the service. My observation will include my thoughts of what she thinks and I will ask questions about what her thoughts are of the service and other topics we have had in our religious class. Background A short background of Abuela is that she is from Puerto Rico, 87 years old, speaks mostly Spanish, no husband and she loves her great grandkids

while attending my weekly Catholic Church service, I strived to analyze the ritualized service. I realized that a service itself is not just comprised of one ritual, but of multiple rituals that are guided by the purpose of ultimately salvaging one’s soul at any given moment by offering one’s time to God. Thus, I sought out to better understand one of the rituals present individually, which is the most important one (though they are all important) present in the service. Such ritual is the blessing of

and effective way. Located within the Cinema is a Place of Worship; the Jubilee Church London. This is an informal, multicultural church in Enfield which moved into Enfield CINEWORLD Complex in 2005 with a followership of 100 people. The church followership has since grown to over 1000 followers holding two services every Sunday. The church’s mission statement is, “It’s all about Jesus”. Committed to the belief that church is not all about buildings and tradition but rather about knowing and worshipping

This week I spent a great amount of exploring the space at Free Chapel. I went on Wednesday April 6th, and was hoping to attend a service, but unfortunately they no longer have a Wednesday night service, and hold a meeting for the men’s ministry instead. In general the space inside the church is very large, and it consist of two different level with a wide variety of room that are used for different groups of people. Furthermore, the large cross on the outside lets people outside know what the space

two churches I attended were First Baptist and Frazer Methodist Church. The experiences I had were not too far from each other meaning they weren't really all that different. The First Church I went to was Frazer. When I first got there I was a little confused because I didn't really know anybody at first. But as I got in to the church and started to meet more people I felt very welcomed like I was meant to go the church. When the service started the first thing that happened was the Youth Minister
