We’re so glad you’re considering a visit to Soli Deo Gloria Church. Whether you’re exploring churches or returning, here’s a quick look at what to expect when you worship with us.

What Does Soli Deo Gloria Mean?

Soli Deo Gloria is Latin for “Glory to God Alone.”

This phrase captures the heart of our church:

  • No person is the hero.

  • No song or program takes center stage.

  • We exist to glorify God alone.

When You Arrive

Help yourself to coffee, tea, or a treat at the hospitality table. Then, be sure to pick up:

  • A Songbook – with all the lyrics to help you join in our musical worship.

  • A Liturgy Guide – which outlines the flow of the service and helps you participate meaningfully.

What’s a liturgy? 

It’s simply the “order of service.” Every church has one, even if they call it a bulletin. Ours includes calls and responses, Scripture readings, prayers, songs, creeds, and confessions spoken and sung together as a church family. This makes us not spectators, but participants in the worship service, joining our voices as the bride of Christ to respond to Him in praise.

A Participatory Worship Service

Every part of our worship is done with intentionality and meaning. Each week, our liturgy walks us through the story of redemption using five C’s:

  • God Calls us – He gathers His people.

  • God Cleanses us – We recognize our sin and confess it before Him.

  • God Consecrates us – Through His Word, He shapes and sets us apart.

  • God Communes with us – Baptized believers are invited to His table.

  • God Commissions us – We are sent out to share the good news.

Worshiping as Families

We believe worship is for the whole family, and we welcome children in our services!

From a young age, we want kids to learn the rhythms of worship and lift their voices with the church. We want children to see adults worship, and adults to see children worship. We want our children to know they belong, fully and joyfully, to the church. We know this isn’t always easy, so here are some encouragements and reminders:

  • We love the sound of children in the room! Little voices and baby cries remind us the gospel is reaching the next generation and the rhythms of worship are being imprinted on young hearts.

  • You’re not alone, many families have walked this road and are eager to help.

  • Our kids’ workbook connects with the sermon each week, helping them engage with God’s Word and grow in their understanding.

Every Sunday We Celebrate at the Table

Each week we celebrate the Lord’s Supper, remembering the finished work of Jesus.

For all baptized believers, the Table is not a reward for the righteous, but a gift of grace. We come not with somber hearts, but with joy and celebration because Christ has done what we never could.
