Worship Services at The Gayton Kirk

                                                                 
                                                                  The 8:30 AM Morning Celtic Worship Service
is a 40-minute service    with The Lord’s Supper, special music and a guided discussion about the  Scripture.

 Christian Celtic worship values the everyday experience and the ways we  use our senses to praise God. We respond to God's gifts of seeing and  tasting, hearing and feeling, and singing by offering our whole selves to God  in worship.

 The Celtic tradition is a way of seeing the world. The tradition emphasizes  the goodness of creation and makes us aware of the connections of nature  with God's creatures. Nature does not serve humankind, rather, all of  creation joins with humanity to praise God.

  


The 5 PM Sunday Jazz Vespers
is an innovative worship experience of jazz music, conversation and Holy Communion. 

This service encourages worshipers to explore their questions about God. 

 The 11 AM Sunday morning worship service is a  traditional Christian service. As many other Presbyterian congregations, we use a schedule of readings to guide Scripture selection for Sunday. The choir presents special music for the service, there is a sermon, and a time of sharing prayer concerns.                                                        

 As participants in the worship experience at  The Gayton Kirk we, as the gathered  community, offer ourselves and our abilities  in service to God. We sing. We dance. We  pray. We make music. We preach. We serve. 

 We are the actors on the stage before God. We are bringing ourselves to God. 

 We believe it is very important to welcome children as participants in worship.  We  have a children's time during the morning service and we include appropriate  experiences during worship for the young and old. There is a nursery with a Nursery  Director provided for children ages up through five years of age.
