ENTRANCE
When you arrive at Ragley First Pentecostal Church, one of our ushers will be there to greet you and help you feel welcome. As our guest, you may be asked to fill out a short visitor form so we can get to know you better and stay connected. After that, our ushers will gladly help you find a seat and answer any questions you may have before service begins.
PRAYER AND WORSHIP
30 minutes prior to service, we take time to pray together. This helps prepare our hearts for worship and invites the presence of God into the service. Guests are welcome to join in prayer, but there is no pressure or expectation. During the service, we may also pray for special needs, and anyone who desires prayer is welcome to come forward when invited.
​
Our services include heartfelt praise and worship led by our music team. You may see people singing, clapping, lifting their hands, or worshiping openly as they express their love for God. We believe worship is a sincere response to the goodness of God, and guests are welcome to participate in whatever way they feel comfortable.
“O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.” -Psalm 47:1
THE PREACHING
We believe in the anointed preaching of God’s Word. Our ministers seek God in prayer and preach the truth of Scripture with faith, conviction, and a desire to see lives changed. God has chosen the anointed preaching of His Word to awaken faith, convict hearts, reveal Jesus Christ, and lead people into salvation.
“It pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.”
— 1 Corinthians 1:21 (KJV)
At the conclusion of the message, an altar call is given. Everyone is invited to come forward and respond to the Word through prayer. It is a time to repent, seek direction, receive healing, be renewed, and receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
We believe God still meets people at the altar, and through His presence, lives are transformed.
