O Come, Let Us Adore Him Worship Center

Likely you've been noticing the changes in worship here at Knox. We've had some explanation of those changes in different ways. But we thought it might also be a good time to think together in a more extended way about the subject of worship. This 6-week class will provide an overview of worship and provide a larger context of understanding for the changes we've been making.

We'll meet together in the Worship Center and our teachers will be Pastors Bryan, Bob and Josh; Elders Bill Painter and David Thompson, and Interim Music Director Tori Clark.
