Kirk of Kildaire

Sunday Morning Worship

.

Get to Know Us

We worship every Sunday morning at 10:30 AM in our Sanctuary. Our traditional, liturgical reformed service includes prayer, music and singing, and preaching from Scripture, and the celebration of the sacraments.

All are welcome to worship with us. Come as you are. Children of all ages are welcome in worship, but a nursery is available as needed for children age 4 and younger.

What to Expect

 

 

You can reach both the upper and lower parking lots from High Meadow Drive. The Sanctuary (where we worship) is closest to the upper lot. Look for “VISITOR” spots set aside for our newest guests. 

If you park in a visitor space, walk under the portico and enter the doors to your left under the covered patio. If you enter on the lower level near the community garden, take the elevator upstairs to reach the Sanctuary.

You’ll find Greeters ready to welcome you to worship or guide you to other parts of the campus, including the Nursery and Sunday School areas. If you are a first time visitor, please take a welcome bag from the table near the entry door.

Yes! Visitors and members are encouraged to “drop off” passengers under the covered area/portico leading to the main Sanctuary entrance before parking in the upper parking lot. A greeter is available to open the door for those in need of assistance. 

The Kirk is a multi-generational congregation of over 1,200 people of all ages, with an average worship attendance of around 350 on Sunday mornings. 

Our worship service includes a time for a message specifically for children. Children of all ages are welcome in our worship service, but we offer a nursery for children 4 years old and younger who may not be ready to sit through the entire service. Our nursery is located by the preschool entrance of the church. You can sign in your children with our nursery coordinator before the service, or take your children to the nursery after the children’s message.

If at any point you need to step out of the service with your child, we have a space outside the church office where you can watch the service live.

We have worship bags available for older children that include coloring books and activities for kids, located in the hall outside the church office.

There is no dress code at the Kirk.

All are invited to participate in the Sacrament of Communion regardless of age or understanding.

The Kirk celebrates the Lord’s Supper, Communion, on the first Sunday of each month as well as at other special worship services throughout the year.

Presbyterians believe that Baptism is a sign that we are a part of the community of believers throughout the world and through all the ages. When joining the Presbyterian church, individuals who have not been baptized will receive the sacrament during the worship service when new members are presented to the congregation.

When Christian parents present their infant children for Baptism, they consecrate themselves to the task of bringing up their child in the faith of the church.

Those who are being baptized upon profession of faith declare their intent to participate actively and responsibly in the church’s worship and mission.

Our Sunday service of worship begins at 10:30 AM. We recommend you arrive a little early to park and find a seat.
