COMMITMENTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
As a member of Immanuel Baptist Church, we ask for your commitment to Sunday worship gatherings. In addition to this core commitment, we commend gathered prayer & Gospel Community Groups as highly recommended opportunities to fulfill our Church Covenant.
Sunday Worship Service
Every Sunday morning we gather to glorify God by reading His word, the Bible, preaching His word, listening to His word, praying His word, singing His word, and seeing His word on display in baptism and the Lord’s Supper. This gathering is the foundation of all of our discipleship at Immanuel.
Sunday Prayer Gatherings
We believe that through prayer God advances His Kingdom, protects us from the attacks of Satan, and does wonderful works for His own glory! We want to ask God to do all of those things for us. We never want God to say to us, “you do not have, because you do not ask.” Because of this desire, we encourage members to take part in our Sunday morning prayer gatherings.
Gospel Community Groups
These small groups of 8-12 people meet together throughout the week to care for one another, build community with one another, and be on mission together throughout Louisville. With Gospel Community Groups gathering at different times and in different ways, there are ample opportunities for you to connect.
