The Church of Charlottesville

What are services like?
We currently gather in a home. There is order, but there is freedom as well. We open in prayer, read the Psalms, sing a variety of songs, pray, hear prayer requests and testimonies, men can share a teaching (following the biblical command, women do not teach, give the appearance of teaching or question the teaching or decisions of the Elders), children can recite scripture and pray as well. We are Family-Integrated, meaning we don't shove our kids off to a nursery or "children's church." We have a teaching time, which is either expository or topical. Then we share the Lord's Supper (which is the main reason why a body of believers is to gather) and have a fellowship meal. Afterwards, the children play and the adults talk.

What is the community like?
We are currently four families with a combined 11 children ages 1-16. Adults from their mid-20's to 50.
