Here you go:

Corporate Prayer (most are kneeling, others are walking and praying)
Praise and Worship--at this point, what ever God wants, because we all prayed corporately for his will. He could have us all slain or pastor will give a Word or she will continue to sing the "Song of the Lord" -- yeah, he gives us songs in the middle of worship! Seriously!
Pastor Preaches/ministers (if she can)
tithes/Offering/Announcements
Done!

Don't be fooled and don't call it old school (we had a famous gospel artist say "she had ya'll kneeling like back in the day!") Sad that people think pray is old school--someone needs to pick up his Word. We just believe in giving God his time and his space. No other agenda is welcome. WE HAVE CHURCH FOR REAL (not saying that you all don't)! We've been hearing a lot of preachers say, I wish we could get back to the old way of church...we are there and we just smile and look at each other :).

Not everyone is ready for this type of atmosphere either---but I love it!

We worship on the Sabbath....So....

Sabbath (Sunday) School at 12-2pm
Service at 3pm..or atleast around 3...You know how WE do.... ;)
Praise and worship
Praise and worship
We recite the Commandments
Then more praise and worship.... :-\
Then we introduce the mc for the service...Usually me or our Asst Bishop
Then we go into this 20 minute praise break! >:( (which shoulda already been going on...but this is for da folks who wanna stare at the praise and worship leaders instead of praising God...and all that is about to stop too!)
Then someone is called on to sing (usually me or my wife....or both of us :-\)
Then we have offering
Then Bishop gets up to preach
Somewhere in the middle of him preaching....He gets his dance in.
Doors of the church are open....and at that time all of us try to escape :D :D
Announcements
Benediction
And after all that, you would think that we would leave...but Nooooo...you know church folk....we hang around and talk....

So we're normally finished sometime before Monday morning.... ;) :D

Bunk a shout.....How you livin'??
