A Typical Weekend:
Worship
Worship through music brings people together and it expresses so much. Whether you are the next pop idol or just sing in the shower, we sing our praises to God. Singing is twice praying after all.
​
Talks
We dive into the big issues about faith and try to grasp the basics of Christianity, the talks are usually given live with people sharing the teachings of Christianity as well their own personal experience of living the Christian life.
Discussions
After the talks we break into small groups and let people share their thoughts and ideas about the topic. There is no obligation to say anything and there is nothing that you cannot say. This time is a opportunity to share your own perspective in an honest, friendly, and open environment.
​
Fellowship
​
Taking time to enjoy each other's company is important. We will have time to relax, play games, and have fun.
