Sunday Worship

Sunday, October 23, 2022 @ 11:00 AM

Join us this Sunday as Pastor Kalina leads us in worship. We are continuing the Seeking Shalom series with this Sunday's sermon on Seeking Equity. Please remember we are still wearing masks while singing together. This is currently a rule throughout all of the Open Door Churches. We also silence cell phones during the service.

May your presence in worship this week (either in person or online) be a time of peaceful reflection and renewal, joy and comfort. We hope you can join us in person but, if not, click the link below to view this week's Open Door Churches video.

Share this invitation with your family, friends and neighbors. These online services are a wonderful opportunity to share the love of our faith community with everyone, near and far!

See you in worship!

Taize Service

Sunday, October 23, 2 p.m.

Morningside UMC

On Sunday, October 23, at 2:00 PM, the pastors and musicians of the Open Door Churches will be hosting a 30-minute prayer service in the style of the Taize Community, a non-denominational monastery in the Burgundy region of France.

What is Taize Worship?

Taize Worship includes very little spoken words, and typically has no recognizable leadership. It is mostly sung prayers, most of which are scripture passages set to music and repeated in a chant style. The music is undergirded with instrumental music and complemented by cantors who offer solo voice. Although Taize music offers the chance for trained musicians to sing harmony parts, you need not be able to read music to participate. Each week throughout the year at the Taize Community, as many as 7000 people gather in the chapel three times daily to participate in these sung prayers—and many of them sing just like you (no matter how well you think you sing)!!

Worship will be recorded and shown on November 13

Please keep in mind that the service will be recorded for playback as the ODC Online Worship service on Sunday, November 13! Because of the unique way Taize Worship is conducted, no one should be visible from the front, so you should feel free to participate, even if you have privacy concerns.

All ages are welcome

The Taize Community is very welcoming of children participating in worship and even offers them a special place within the chapel. Please feel free to bring your children with you! Child activity noise is a blessing from God. The ODC Youth Group will have a special opportunity to participate. Pastor John Fleming will host an orientation for all youth, beginning at 1:00 PM at Morningside UMC, after which the group will participate in the service. Youth group time will be as usual, 1:00-2:30 PM, and parents are encouraged to stay and participate in worship.

Come join in on this wonderful time together

The service will be held in the sanctuary of Morningside UMC and is open to members of the Open Door Churches faith community, friends, and guests.
