Sunday Worship Service
At NLBC, we meet every Sunday morning to worship God the Father through His Son the Lord Jesus
Christ and by the enablement of the Holy Spirit. As the early Church did, we gather to continue
steadfastly in the apostles, doctrine, fellowship, breaking of bread and prayers (Acts 2:42).
The central focus of worship is the Lord Jesus Christ. The Lord said, If you love me, obey my
commandments (John 14:15). As an expression of our love and worship, we obey His blessed
ordnance to remember Him and His sacrificial death and resurrection through the Breaking of Bread.
The worship service opens with singing, call to worship, thanksgiving, praise, prayer, reading and
meditation of Bible passages, and is consummated by partaking of the Bread and Wine. We believe
in the priesthood of all believers, therefore all saints are to worship the Lord. The brethren (men) are
encouraged to audibly participate (share and pray) during this time. After the Breaking of Bread,
an offering is taken as a thanksgiving for God's blessing in our lives. This offering is used for different
ministries of the church and for the furtherance of the work of the Lord around the world.
A coffee break is intentionally scheduled to meet members and new comers and to have fellowship with
one another which is a sweet time for all.
NLBC is known as a singing church and has a vibrant group of gifted singers and musicians who use
their talents for the glory of God. Our youth actively participates in ministry.
There is also a testimony time during which prayer requests and matters for thanksgiving and praise
may be shared.
NLBC believes in the supremacy of Scriptures in all areas of a believer's life. Therefore we give great
emphasis to the teaching and preaching of the Word of God. We are blessed with godly men who are
able to challenge us with life changing messages which motivate and exhort everyone to walk closer to
God and to serve Him according to the plan and purposes of God for each individual.
