A committee, composed of members from the Celebrate! Team and the Worship committee, was charged with the task of renewing our Sunday morning order. Hazelwood will implement a concurrent worship schedule on Sunday, beginning January 6, 2013. As part of the ongoing process of designed congregational renewal, the morning worship services will be taking place simultaneously, beginning at 10 a.m.
The purpose for this is twofold. The first intention is to facilitate congregational growth. This is targeted toward both families seeking a new church home and from within existing Hazelwood families. Families seeking a new church home will find a holistic children’s and youth menu of ministries. All toddler, children’s , and youth programming will shift from a split format to one which is unified and complete.
The second intention, as important as the first, is to enhance unity from within the existing church family. Church families who study together, youth who interact together, all who fellowship together, develop deeper relationships which enable all to grow closer together. There are tertiary effects which can produce compelling additional benefits.
Schedule for Sunday mornings will look like this beginning Sunday, January 6, 2013
- 9:30 a.m. Adult Choir practice
- 10:00 a.m. Sanctuary Service and Celebrate! Service, Toddler and Children’s Sunday School will be held during this time.
- 11:15 a.m. All Church Coffee Fellowship
- 11:30 a.m. Youth Groups will meet when scheduled
**Adult Church School and Children’s Choir schedules will be announced.
Look forward to the new year approaching as Hazelwood ever strives to engage new ministries and established ministries in new ways!
