Worship Nazareth worships weekly at 8.30am [except for Sunday 16 June 2024 when the service will commence at 10:30am<\/em>] and follows traditional service orders, usually with a sung liturgy, accompanied by our pipe organ, and often a Cantor.<\/p>\n Holy Communion is offered on the first and third Sundays of the month. Hymns and songs are mainly chosen from the Lutheran Hymnal with Supplement.<\/p>\n Vespers services are candlelit services offered on the first Wednesday evening of the month at 7.00pm, including reflective music, prayers and a short message. Vespers is a relaxed service in our candlelit church to wind down mid-week.<\/p>\n Hymnals and service order booklets are available from the ushers as you enter the church. The service order and weekly bulletin, hymns, prayer, pastor’s note, and Bible readings are emailed out each Thursday, so please contact the office if you’d like to receive this.<\/p>\n A children’s address is normally held during the service where children in the congregation are invited to the front to spend a short time of learning with our pastor.<\/p>\n Our Sunday morning worship service is generally quite full, so come early, particularly on special festival days.<\/p>\n Photography In Church & Privacy<\/strong><\/p>\n We are a child safe church and we understand that many adults do not want photographs of themselves or of their children, to be taken while they are in Church or used on social media.<\/p>\n We ask members and visitors to please abide by our photography rules:<\/p>\n We thank you for abiding by these rules, designed to protect the privacy and safety of members, children, visitors and guests.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n We hold special worship services seasonally, such as:<\/p>\n Morning tea and fellowship<\/strong>: each Sunday after worship<\/p>\n Bible study groups<\/strong>: each Wednesday 1:45pm.
