Worship at Madison Street Worship at Madison Street is centered around the basic elements of worship inherent to the United Methodist/Wesleyan tradition. Our services of worship generally include a greeting and call to worship, an affirmation of faith utilizing one of the historic Christian creeds, a time for people to greet each other, a pastoral prayer, the Lord’s prayer, an offering, scripture readings, a sermon, a message to the children, and the singing of hymns and other special music. The sacrament of Holy Communion is usually observed on the first Sunday of each month and at other special times during the church year. Worship at Madison Street follows the Liturgical Calendar, which means we celebrate a cycle of seasons in the church: 1) Advent, 2) Christmas, 3) Epiphany, 4) Ordinary Time, 5) Lent, 6) Easter, 7) Pentecost, and 8) Kingdomtide. Currently, we are in the season of Ordinary Time. Given the term “ordinary,” it may be easy to think that that the Sundays in this season are less important than those of other seasons, but this is not accurate. The use of the term “ordinary” in this sense refers to the Latin root “ordinalis,” which simply means “numbered.” Therefore, the Sundays of Ordinary Time are numbered in a series preceding and following other liturgical seasons. The liturgical color for Ordinary Time is green, as indicated by the paraments on the lectern and pulpit and the stoles worn by our pastors. For more information or if you have questions about worship, please contact any of our pastors. The Rev. Cliff C. Wright, Jr. Senior Pastor The Rev. Jared D. Wilson Senior Associate Pastor The Rev.
