Before you ever come to Christ Victory Assembly you have so many basic questions you may be thinking about but are too afraid to ask. So we have put together some of the most common questions about what it is like to visit Christ Victory Assembly.
1. What should I wear?
We want you to feel comfortable when you visit our church. What you will find when you visit is a very diverse group of people. Some will be dressed very casually, while others prefer to dress up a little bit more. We want you to come just the way you are. We believe that going to church should not be about who you are on the outside, but who you really are on the inside.
2. Do I have to give money?
During the service, tithes and offerings will be received. More than a collection to pay church bills, this too is worship. Our members feel giving the tithe (the first tenth of income) and offerings declares that God comes first. It recognizes His blessing, expresses faith and seeks His guidance in every matter in life. All the ministries of the church are supported solely by free-will giving. However, as a visitor you need not feel obligated to give. The focus of the church is not on your wallet, but on your heart.
3. Will my kids like it?
Our kids are the most excited about attending Christ Victory Assembly. We work hard to provide an atmosphere of love, excitement, and genuine compassion so that our children can grow to be a better generation. We have classes for all ages from birth through high school. Our teachers are committed to providing the very best experience for learning and growing. We are here to walk with families as kids build a relationship with God, while developing a Biblical worldview.
4. Is the message boring?
The climax of the service comes with the preaching of God's Word, the Bible, and an invitation for hearers to respond. The messages are fervent, inspiring and practical.
The pastor or speaker may close with an invitation for those who need forgiveness in their lives to come forward and accept Christ as Savior. Those who feel a need to rededicate their lives to Christ or to pray about other concerns are also invited to come. Believers are urged to ask God for the baptism in the Holy Spirit to further empower them for Christian service. Often everyone is invited to come pray during the altar service.
Deep emotion and excitement may or may not be demonstrated at the altars, but everyone who calls on God in faith receives something.
If you've wondered what a Pentecostal service is like, we invite you to observe and experience God's joy and peace that defy description. And when you visit again, come expecting. Expect a move of God not only in the service, but also in your life. We think you'll agree that the comfort, help and strength He gives are better experienced than explained.
5. Is the music boring?
Music is by far one of the most powerful forms of communication. Our worship style is contemporary. You will see guitars, keyboards, drums, as well as other instruments. Singing is a great way to help us remember what is really important in life as well as revitalize our passion for the upcoming week.
6. Will I feel out of place?
We have people from all kinds of backgrounds, experiences, and cultures. We do not look down upon anyone. Our goal is to love every person the way Jesus did. You can count on seeing a lot of smiling faces and people who will want to get to know the real you. At Christ Victory Assembly you matter, and we want you to feel the love that God has for you through us.
