Worship at Epworth

Worship

Worship, the central activity of the church, is planned to enable worshippers to glorify God, listen for the Word as it instructs us, and affirm our unity with Christ and one another. It is our corporate opportunity to offer God our thanks and praise for all God's gifts to us, including our salvation through Jesus Christ and the guidance of the Holy Spirit in the life of all believers.

Sunday services are held at 8:30 and 11:00 a.m. Contemporary service is held at 9:00 a.m. Seasonal services are held on Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, and Good Friday during Lent and Easter, and during Advent and Christmas.

Inclement Weather Policy

When Durham County Schools close due to adverse weather conditions, the Pastor may excuse staff members from work, subject to further review and action by Staff Pastor Parish Relations. Other activities scheduled for such days may be canceled or postponed. The decision to hold services of Sunday Worship and Sunday School will be made by the Pastor.
