Worship
A weekly service is held each Sunday beginning at 11 A.M. Led by the Rev. Marthame Sanders, each service is relaxed yet spiritually focused. Child care is provided during this time.
OPC often has special musical guests during the worship time. In the past they have hosted The Choral Guild of Atlanta, The Oglethorpe University Choir and many other talented performers.
Communion is celebrated approximately monthly, and follows the liturgical calendar. All Christians are invited to participate whether or not they are members of OPC.
After the worship service, refreshments are served in the Narthex of the church. This is a wonderful time to meet new friends and catch up with old ones.

Famous quotes containing the word worship:
“The timidity of the child or the savage is entirely reasonable; they are alarmed at this world, because this world is a very alarming place. They dislike being alone because it is verily and indeed an awful idea to be alone. Barbarians fear the unknown for the same reason that Agnostics worship it—because it is a fact.”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
“We have to be despised by somebody whom we regard as above us, or we are not happy; we have to have somebody to worship and envy, or we cannot be content. In America we manifest this in all the ancient and customary ways. In public we scoff at titles and hereditary privilege, but privately we hanker after them, and when we get a chance we buy them for cash and a daughter.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“I have always been a friend to hero-worship; it is the only rational one, and has always been in use amongst civilized people—the worship of spirits is synonymous with barbarism—it is mere fetish.... There is something philosophic in the worship of the heroes of the human race.”
—George Borrow (1803–1881)
