Services:
Burgaw Presbyterian Church is ready to meet you. We love
Jesus Christ, children, youth, and families. We have Sunday School available for
all ages starting at 9:45 am and worship at 11 am. On Wednesday nights starting
at 7 pm we have an Area Bible Study (ABS) for youth in grades 7-12. Every month
we have special meals for the whole family and special activities for the
children. Stop by any time for a visit. We would love your company.
Our purpose is to be Christ Centered, Family Focused, and
Ministry Minded
Services Held: 11:00 AM Each Sunday
Our worship is traditional in structure but often
contemporary in content. We follow a traditional order- Call to worship,
Confession, Prayers, Anthem; but within these we may use a contemporary approach
and contemporary material.
We use a variety of music in our service from traditional
hymn to contemporary Christian music. We always have a sermon, but it may be set
up or reinforced by contemporary drama, poetry or liturgical dance.
We regularly have a special time for the children in the
service which may include a story or a song. We try constantly to use a fresh
approach within a traditional order. Our worship is consciously designed to
communicate to all ages and to be inclusive.
Theme and Seasonal Sundays:
- *Scout Sunday
- *Older Adult & Family Sunday
- *Six Sundays of Lent. The Lenten season begins on Ash Wednesday and
continues for forty weekdays until Easter. Like Advent, Lent is a time of
preparation except this time we are preparing to face the reality of the
cross. Our pastor offers spiritual journals for the Lenten season.
- *On Palm Sunday, our children lead the congregation in celebrating the
triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem.
- *On Maundy Thursday (before Easter) we join in an ecumenical worship
service held in the community.
- *On Easter Sunday the church celebrates Jesus' Resurrection in a Sunrise
Service. The Easter season is fifty days of sheer celebration. It is
literally a time to celebrate with God's people, to enjoy creation, to revel
in relationships, to affirm the great mystery of life, to rejoice in our new
life in Christ and in the church, his body.
- *Pentecost ends the Easter. It is a celebration of the enriching
presence and power of the Holy Spirit.
- *Four Sundays of Advent leading up to Christmas. Including a "Hanging of
the Green" service and prepare our sanctuary usually held on the First
Sunday of Advent. The Advent Wreath is also used during the four Sundays in
Advent.
- * On Christmas Eve we have a beautiful candlelight Communion service at
our church.
Member congregation of the PC(USA).
