Sunday Worship
WHat to EXPECT
WHAT HAPPENS IN A SERVICE?
Our live in-person and on-line services last about an hour and 10 minutes. We sing songs using a variety of instruments - keyboard, guitar, bass, violin, horn, synth and drums). The sermon lasts about 30 minutes and uses scripture to teach its points
WHAT DO MY KIDS DO DURING THE SERVICE?
During the main worship service, we offer Children’s Church for children age five through 3rd grade as well as nurseries (infants, crawlers, walkers—newborn through age 2). We will tell everyone in the sanctuary area during the service when the young children may go out to Children’s Church.
WILL I BE ASKED TO GIVE MONEY?
We do collect an offering, but it is for our members and regular attendees. If you are a visitor/guest, please do not feel obligated to give. We have offering boxes placed on the rear wall of the main sanctuary.
Do YOU Provide a socially distanced worship space?
You are welcome in the basement of our sanctuary building to view the worship service on a livestream setup in a socially distanced environment.
More Questions
ARE THERE WAYS THAT I CAN LEARN MORE ABOUT BEING PART OF MARANATHA?
Yes, periodically we have informational face-to-face sessions where it is much easier to have a good conversation about Maranatha and what it might mean to be a part of it. And, we provide information through the website. Also, questions may be asked by calling the church office at 319-362-8784 or by emailing the church at contact@maranathabible.org.
IF I DECIDE TO ATTEND, ARE THERE WAYS I CAN HELP?
The quick answer is “Yes.” If you already have a good idea where your strengths and interests are, let the church office know and we can suggest area or ministry leaders who can talk with you. If you don’t know what you might be interested in doing, then we can talk with you and see if, together, we can identify a possible area for you to assist with.
