WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN YOU VISIT 

When you arrive, follow the signs to the Hall on the second floor where worship takes place. You’ll be welcomed by our greeters who will give you a worship guide and answer any questions you may have. Once the service begins, the worship guide will explain and help you keep track of where we are in the order of worship (called a liturgy). The worship leader will also explain why we’re doing what we’re doing throughout the service.

ABOUT LITURGY

Christ Church Halifax follows a particular liturgy every week, for two main reasons: First, because it keeps us focused on the good news of Jesus. During worship, the liturgy moves us through the four movements of the gospel: God Calls us to worship him, God Cleanses us of sin in Christ, God Communes with us in his Word and the Lord’s Supper, and God Sends us back into the world to love and serve our neighbours.

Secondly, the weekly repetition of our liturgy forms and reforms us, mind and body, training us to love and live rightly.

CHILDREN VISITING CHRIST CHURCH

Children of all ages are most welcome to remain for the entirety of worship — children are an important part of God’s family, so we value their participation throughout worship!

If needed, there is a nursery for children ages 0-3 that’s staffed during the sermon. There is also an unstaffed quiet activity area at the back of the hall for older children learning to remain in the service.

GOT QUESTIONS?

We take questions about faith and life seriously! If there was something you didn’t understand during the service or would like to dig into deeper, or if you’ve got a random question about the Christian faith, you’re heartily welcome to talk with the pastor immediately after the service to ask any questions.
