What to expect when you visit on a Sunday morning:

A warm and friendly congregation who will welcome you 
Services that glorify God
Bible classes are held first, (10am) and worship service follows (11am)
When Christianity began, worship was very simple--requiring only minds, hearts, and voices attuned to God
The song service reflects that simplicity
Everyone is encouraged to participate in the singing in worship
It is a time to commune with God through His Spirit
The singing is a cappella
Choose a range of singing comfortable for your voice
Prayers will be led by men in the congregation
Most worshipers simply bow their heads
You are welcome to assume any submissive posture that is comfortable to you in prayer
Each Sunday, a time is set aside to remember the death and resurrection of Jesus
As Jesus did at the Last Supper, unleavened bread is served to remember His physical body, surrendered to death
Grape juice is served to remember His blood given for our forgiveness
Communion, (or Lord's Supper), is a memorial act for Christians to observe
The decision to commune or not is each individual's decision
Each Sunday, members give money to support the work of the congregation
The work of the congregation is the responsibility of its members, so gifts from visitors are accepted but not expected
Following the morning sermon, there will be song of reflection/invitation

This invitation is  offered: 
to encourage Christians who feel they need public prayer to come forward during the invitation song.
to allow the person who in faith and repentance wants to be baptized into Christ. 

Christ's invitation is open every day, every hour

Any time is the appropriate time for prayer or baptism.
