Lexington Presbyterian - Sunday Schedule

Usually during three seasons of the year, we have two services: 8:45am and 11:00am. We combine them during the summer months for a single service at 10:00am. On some special occasions we may have a single service. Our home page will have an announcement if this is the case.

Read below for what we can offer you on Sundays. We hope to see you soon.

The Worship Experience

Informal worship

We invite you to worship with us at 8:45am in Dunlap Auditorium and stay for fellowship or Sunday School afterwards. We welcome children of all ages at this service. If you are seeking a smaller, relaxed and informal service, this is an option for you. Come as you are!

Bill

We celebrate the Lord's Supper (Communion) weekly and invite all baptized Christians, regardless of denomination, to participate.

Communion table

Traditional worship

We will also welcome you at our traditional service at 11:00am in the sanctuary. There is a formal order of worship, which is outlined in the bulletin our greeters will give you.

Sanctuary

This service features a variety of music. We praise God with organ, choir, handbells and other instruments as well as with congregational singing.

Ringers

During the 11:00 service we celebrate the Lord's Supper (Communion) usually on the first Sunday of each month. All baptized Christians of whatever denomination are invited to participate.

There is no "dress code" although you will find that many in the congregation wear business attire.

Ushers will be pleased to help you find a seat if you need assistance.

After the service we invite you for fellowship and refreshments. In inclement weather we meet in Dunlap Auditorium. In suitable weather we gather in the courtyard between the sanctuary and Murray Hall.

Healing Service

On the first Sunday of the month we offer a Wholeness and Healing Service that begins at 5:00pm and lasts around 45 minutes

This service will include prayers both general and specific, scripture reading, singing and silence.

 

Summer schedule

From June through August we meet at 10:00am in the sanctuary. We strive to mix elements of both the informal and traditional services.

We look forward to welcoming you for lemonade fellowship in the courtyard following worship.

Child Care We welcome children of all ages at this informal service. There is no separate provision for child care at this time. In addition to our children's classes our experienced caregivers provide child care for infants and toddlers.

We do not offer children's Sunday School classes during the summer months.

 We offer child care for the littlest ones during the 11:00 service - 10:00 in the summer. Children from kindergarten age through second grade may participate in a special enrichment program after the Children's Time in the worship service.

Sunday Fellowship Opportunities

Welcome

We hope you will take advantage of an opportunity to get to know us better after the worship service. There are snacks, coffee and juice available both before and after the 8:45 service in Dunlap Auditorium. Feel free to take a cup of coffee to your seat to sip. After the 11:00 (10:00 in summer) service, we have a get-together for lemonade and cookies. During the winter months, this is in Dunlap Auditorium. In the summer we gather in the courtyard beside the sanctuary. We also recommend our Sunday School classes as good places both to learn and to meet folks in smaller, less-formal groups.

On selected summer Sundays we get together for a pot-luck picnic at the manse. These events are called "SOWS" for Suppers on White Street. We love to see visitors there.

The Sacraments

Baptized infant Bread and wine Presbyterians celebrate two sacraments: The Lord's Supper (Communion) and Baptism. In this congregation we celebrate communion weekly in the 8:45am Sunday service, monthly in the 11:00am service and at selected special services. We celebrate baptism when there is a request for it. Presbyterians practice "open Communion" and invite all baptized Christians to participate, regardless of age or denomination.
