At LVPC, our goal is to praise God with variety of worship and worship arts.  Each Sunday, our regular worship schedule consists of two worship services.

---

Chapel Service: 8:30 - 9:15 AM (Contemplative and Traditional)
Our Chapel Service is a smaller gathering of people coming together to give thanks to God.  The service is traditional and incorporates  prayer,  hymns, the sharing of joys and concerns, fellowship, and the pastor's message. Childcare for infants to preschoolers is available.  


Celebration Worship Service: 10:00 - 11:00 AM

        (Traditional and Contemporary - incorporating a variety of Worship Arts)
Our Celebration Worship Service is our main service and blends elements of traditional and contemporary worship.  Depending on the Sunday, worship may include hymns, prayer, scripture, drama, audio-visual, special music, handbells, or the Ensemble or praise band and always a message for today from Dr. Nagel or Ralph Mullenax, Director of Youth and Worship Ministries.

It incorporates the wide arrary of gifts and talents of the congregation.  Normally, during the Celebration Service, children are invited to particiipated in A Word With the Children before being dismissed to our Childrens' Journeys Sunday School Program.  Following the service, the congregation gathers in the Fellowship Hall for coffee and treats, and more importantly, a time of sharing our lives with each other.  Childcare for infants to preschoolers is available.

3rd Door Worship Service - (Post-Modern) 

Our 3rd Door service brings contemporary praise music, a biblical theme, drama and other worship arts together.  It usually involves Red Switch, our praise band, and always brings the message of salvation in Jesus Christ to people as we Rock for Christ.  3rd Door is held on the third Sunday of each month at 5:00 pm.

Opening Up the Scriptures for Today

Using the scriptures, throughout the year, Dr. Nagel delivers a wide varity of sermons to the congregation using different preaching perspectives.  He wants the congregation to concentrate on making God part of our daily living, and thus, he delivers a message that is both scripturally and socially relevant each week.  To hear some of Dr. Nagel's sermons on justification, grace, baptism, Christian community, Christian witness, and skepticism click on the following link.
