1. ANNOUNCEMENT BEFORE THE TESTIMONY
Ekklesia Evangelical Fellowship upholds the biblical principle of regenerate membership, which means that only those who are born-again in Christ can become members of the church. While unbelievers are welcome to attend church meetings, membership is reserved for believers.
For individuals seeking membership in Ekklesia Evangelical Fellowship, participation in membership classes and the sharing of their born-again testimony before the church are required. This allows the church to evaluate their experience of being born again in Christ.
To facilitate this process, we have brother/sister who will now share their testimony. This serves as an opportunity for the congregation to witness and affirm the transformative work of God in the lives of those seeking membership.
2. ANNOUNCEMENTS BEFORE THE PREACHING BREAK
We will now take a 5-minute break for the following reasons:
-
Children between the ages of 3-10 will be dismissed for Sunday school.
-
Feel free to use the restroom to avoid any disruptions during the sermon.
-
Sermon worksheets will be distributed during the break. Please keep the worksheet and pen ready for listening to the sermon.
-
Pay close attention to the sermon and take notes for meaningful sermon discussion afterward. We will have a 15-minute discussion following the sermon.
-
Please use hardcopy Bibles to avoid distractions from mobile phone notifications.
-
Mothers with small babies are welcome to use the mother's room, particularly if your baby feels cranky and cries.
-
Please take your seats once the song leader begins to lead the song before the sermon.
Thank you for your cooperation.
3. ANNOUNCEMENTS BEFORE SERMON DISCUSSION
-
We now have a 15-minute sermon discussion aimed at mutual reflection and encouragement. As James 1:25 reminds us, "But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing."
-
If anyone missed taking notes on your worksheet, you may request the preacher's notes to complete your worksheet.
-
The sermon discussion questions are located at the back of your worksheet. Please focus your discussions on these questions.
-
Should anyone have questions regarding the sermon, feel free to approach the preacher of the day. He will be available to address your inquiries.
-
After 15 minutes, if you wish to continue your discussion, you are welcome to grab your food and continue.
May God edify the church as we engage in discussion centered on His Word.
