This Preparing for Worship Milestone Moment seeks to help worshipers consciously prepare for public worship, whether it be in-person or virtual. It reminds us of the basic ingredients essential to Christian worship that enrich our lives with faith, hope, and love for all people and all of God’s creation. Whether worshiping virtually or in-person, the experience reminds us all that faith is established and formed through God’s living word in a community of personal, trusted relationships.

This Milestone Moment includes a Four Key Faith Practices outline which encourages growing in our faith by recognizing the home and family gatherings as church, too. A simple five-step structure is also included to establish a solid base for faith formation and development.

These Welcome to Worship pottery stones are individually hand-crafted and available at a low cost to purchase and gift as meaningful reminders of this Milestone Moment. They are a wonderful reminder to help us each time to intentionally prepare for public worship.
