The New York Avenue church of Christ . . .
. . . hopes to make you feel welcome. Our members enjoy greeting our
guests and making them feel at home as much as possible. We want you to
have a good place to park your vehicle, a warm greeting when you come
through the door, information about classes and worship, and, yes, even
where the restrooms are located.
. . . wants you to feel comfortable. We’ll do our best not to embarrass
you. We hope you will feel free to ask questions and pick up any tracts
of interest. We want you to be comfortable enough to ask questions about
anything you hear or see during our Bible classes or worship service. If
you ask questions that pertain to the Bible, we’ll do our best to give
you an answer that you may read for yourself out of your own Bible.
. . . wishes for you to be challenged. One of our goals is to help
people get into the Word of God. We want our Bible classes to be just
that—Bible classes. We want our sermons to be right out of His word. We
want you to be challenged to act more like Jesus, love more like Jesus,
think more like Jesus and when all is said and done, live with Jesus
eternally.
. . . prays for you to be saved. When someone wants to become a
Christian, we only ask that he or she does what those did in the book of
Acts to become a Christian. Then, we urge everyone to live according to
the pattern given us in the New Testament, to walk in the light and so
enjoy the continual spiritual cleansing. This salvation includes being
an active and growing member in the spiritual body of Christ, His
church.
