What We Do
As a local church of Christ, we are primarily devoted to spreading the Gospel of Jesus, our Saviour. We
endevour to edify, (build up spiritually), each other and we attend to any need of our members. This is
the extent of the authority given us by the Holy Spirit via the New Testament Scriptures. You can examine
more closely what the Bible says about the work of the church,

When you read the scriptures, you will find that Christians did this:
- They read God's word
(Colossians 4:16;
1Thess 5:27 )
- They prayed
(Colossians 4:2;
1Timothy 2:1)
- They remembered the Lord's death
1 Corintians 11:23-33
For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the
Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread;
and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.”
In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it,
in remembrance of Me.”
For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes.
Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup.
For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body.
For this reason many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep.
For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged.
But when we are judged, we are chastened by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.
Therefore, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.
But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest you come together for judgment. And the rest I will set in order when I come.
(1 Corintians 11:23-33)
- They sang
(Ephesians 5:19)
- They gave on Sunday
(1 Corinthians 16:1).
- They heard preaching
(1 Corinthians 15:1-4)
- They glorified God
(Phillipians 4:20).
- And edified (built up) each other
(Romans 14:19;
I Thessalonians 5:11)
That's what we do too.
