Worship is central
to the life of Second Presbyterian Church. Each
Sunday we come together to worship God as a
community. In our worship we seek to cultivate a
sense of reverence and awe. The sermons are
biblically based, provocative, and relevant to the
practice of the Christian faith in our daily lives.
Our services follow the seasons of the liturgical
year. Music has a special place in our worship
services. Each Sunday, the music helps open the
doors of our souls and draws us closer to God.
Childcare is provided for preschoolers during all
worship services, and interpretation for individuals
who are deaf is provided during the 11:00 am worship
service.
Our
Eight-Thirty
and
Eleven O’clock services, held in the
sanctuary, are traditional in nature. While most
of our music is drawn from the classical
traditions, we celebrate the diversity of music
with excursions into other styles. The Lord’s
Supper is celebrated the first Sunday of each
month, and infants are baptized on any of the
other Sundays of the month. Non-members are
invited to join the church at the close of each
service. A “time with the children” is a regular
part of worship each Sunday.
Our
Nine O’clock
service, held in Second Hall, is a casual,
user-friendly, forty-five minute service for all
ages. This service is more informal in dress
and style. All are invited to gather as we sing
praises to God together, led in a variety of
musical styles. We pray, read scripture, and
proclaim God’s Word. We celebrate the Lord’s
Supper and are encouraged to live the good news.
Infants are baptized on any Sunday of the month.
Non-members are invited to join the church at
the close of the service on the second Sunday of
each month.

Our worship life is enhanced by special seasonal worship
services, including Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Ash
Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, and Good Friday.
