About Us
Colossians 3:16 "Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God."
Our Singing
We will generally sing 7 or 8 songs during our worship service. There will be books in the racks in front of you to use if you would like to participate. The Church of Christ is unique in our singing from other churches as we don’t use the accompaniment of musical instruments in our service. We believe the Bible teaches that we are to sing with our voices, a-capella if you will, from the heart.
Preaching
We will have a time of instruction from the Bible during our service that we generally call the sermon or lesson. The length will vary but usually lasts about 30-40 minutes.
Our preacher does not go by any special name like pastor or reverend. His name is Valmond Wallace.
Teaching is done strictly according to the bible. 2 Timothy 3:16 "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness"
At the close of the sermon, an invitation will be offered to come forward if you have a need such as prayer, baptism, or the confession of sins. All who wish to respond come to the front of the auditorium while the congregation sings.
Please don’t feel ill-at-ease during this time. You will not be singled out in any way.
If someone does come forward, we will attend to whatever need they may have such as prayer or confession. If they respond indicating their desire for baptism, you will witness this during our service.

Our Family
You will find a diverse bunch here at Greenwell Springs Road Church of Christ. We have blue collar, white collar (not worn by the preacher!) senior saints and babies. We are from different walks of life, different levels of education and are all at different stages in our goals in serving the Lord and becoming more and more like Jesus. Our commonality is found in our belief in God and His word, by which we live, worship, and place our hope of eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. We have a friendly and warm congregation that loves each soul that walks into our doors. It feels like family here and that’s what you’ll find; brothers and sisters in Christ loving God, one another and our neighbors about us.
Praying
We will have several prayers during our services. We feel as an important part of worship is our communicating of our love and praise to God as well as our requests for help in our times of need. If you have a prayer request, please let one of our member know before the service or write in on a visitor’s card and place it in the collection plate and we would count it a privilege to pray for you.
Offering
Following the completion of the Lord’s Supper, we have a time of weekly offering for our members. This is a time set aside for our members to give to the Lord according to our beliefs in the Word of God. As our guest, we will not ask you for money at any time. If you would like to make a donation, feel free to place it in the offering trays as they are passed.
Lord Supper
We will participate in the Lord’s Supper or communion during our service. We believe that the Bible teaches us to observe this weekly as the first century church did. This Supper is in remembrance of the death, burial and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.
The first item to be passed by attendants is unleavened bread which represents the body of Christ. Each participant will take a piece and eat it.
The next item will be the fruit of the vine or grape juice. Each participant will take a small cup, drink it and replace the cup in the tray. This juice symbolizes the blood of Christ.
Please feel free to participate in this Memorial Supper of Christ if you wish. Don’t be embarrassed if you choose not to. Simply pass the trays along to the next person. If you have any questions about the Lord’s Supper, please ask the minister or any of the members you feel comfortable talking to.
Jesus paid it all so that we may live.
1 Peter 3:18 "For Christ also died for sins once for all, the just for the unjust, so that He might bring us to God, having been put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;"
