The Means of Grace

We believe that there are certain practices that help us live out our lives as followers of Jesus.

These include our two sacraments—Baptism and Holy Communion—and also include practices such as

  • daily prayer,

  • daily study of scripture,

  • regular attendance in public worship,

  • participation in smaller fellowship groups, and

  • acts of service to our community.

John Wesley teaches us to daily attend "to all the ordinances of God":

The public worship of God.

The ministry of the Word, either read or expounded.

The Supper of the Lord.

Family and private prayer.

Searching the Scriptures.

Fasting or abstinence.
