SUNDAY WORSHIP

9:00AM Traditional Worship We observe communion on the first Sunday of the month.
After worship there is time and space to share in coffee and snacks. If you don’t need to dash off, we invite you to sit in the cafe and visit with others who have gathered. |
10:00AM Combined Worship 5th Sundays only This service is a combination of components from both our traditional and emergent worship services that only occurs on the 5th Sundays of the month.
|
11:00AM Emergent Worship We feel that the vital components to worship include music, teaching & discussion.
We observe communion on the first Sunday of the month. Feel free to enjoy our coffee/tea bar before, during, and/or after worship. |

We also invite you to explore the sensory tools available in the cafe and encourage you to use them during worship to help you more fully engage. We find they can help us attend to the Spirit at work within us and around us.

What do you Fear?
Insisting on Hope This Advent gently invites us to identify where fear is present—both in the Advent story and in our lives—while also finding our way toward hope, with the angels’ voices in our ears. Every Advent, we light candles, sing carols, and pray for Christ’s coming because we believe God entered a frightened world to bring good news. We hold onto hope because we believe that Christ did come—that’s the promise of the season. Our hope is not flimsy or fleeting. It’s gritty, resilient, and can endure—no matter what we fear or face. This season, let us insist on hope and trust that good news is greater than fear. |

statement of inclusion.
|
Journey at Christ Church is called to the ministry of reconciliation. We embrace, as a gift, the diversity of our neighborhood and the world. We celebrate our human diversity of age, education, ethnicity, faith history, gender identity, marital status, mental and physical ability, political view, race, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status. We affirm that all people are created in the image of God, and, as beloved children of God, all are worthy of God’s love and grace. We welcome all people into participation in the life and ministries of Journey at Christ Church as we journey together toward Jesus. We recognize that there are differences among us, but that we are more alike than we are different. We believe that we can love alike even though we may not think alike. We also believe that we are called to love each other, embracing our differences rather than excluding others because of them. We proclaim this statement of welcome to all who have known the pain of exclusion or discrimination in the church and society. We invite all people to join us in our faith journey toward greater love, understanding, and mutual respect. |
We are listed on LGBTQ+ SPECTRUM of Findlay's directory that is intended to support, promote and connect the LGBTQ+ community to open and affirming establishments within Northwest Ohio. We celebrate diversity and inclusion for all, and particularly seek to enhance the lives of under-represented populations.
