A Sunday Morning at Greenwood Forest
At 9:45am, we gather in groups, small and large, for Faith Formation. Whether it’s a traditional class, a large-group special series, or children’s and youth sessions, there’s something for everyone. At 10:45, there is a break where people can chat, use the bathroom, and make their way to the Sanctuary for worship. 11:00am is the official beginning of the worship service.
Worship at Greenwood Forest
In our Sunday worship service, you might encounter a 500-year-old hymn alongside a freedom song, a Bach organ prelude followed by a bluegrass number, or clap along with a spiritual after quietly repeating a Taizé refrain. We hope that at our best, the worship service at Greenwood Forest gives you a glimpse of what the diverse and beautiful kingdom of God sounds like.
We root our worship service in the historical practices and symbols of Christian tradition but also seek to dynamically respond to our 21st century context. You may hear an ancient doxology after an extemporaneous prayer, a dramatic reading of Scripture following a formal litany. You can find examples by looking through past orders of worship.
