Our Way of Life
We humbly welcome you to take a brief journey into our personal lives, homes, and churches. Our desire is to bless and inspire others as we attempt by God’s grace to live out the teachings of Jesus Christ and the New Testament principles in every aspect of our lives.
Areas of Life and Worship
What aspect of the Brethren way of life and worship do you want to learn more about?
Living by God’s design in our homes
-
In an age when the nuclear family structure and commitment to relationships is being neglected, we believe both should be encouraged and strengthened.
-
Jesus taught us by example with his disciples the importance of connecting around meal times.
-
We believe it is important that families gather each day to read from the Scriptures, sing uplifting songs, and pray together.
Living by God’s design in our churches
-
Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. Heb 10:25
-
Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Act 2:38
-
And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. Luke 22:19
-
Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. James 5:14″
-
“Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all that are in Christ Jesus. Amen. 1 Peter 5:14
-
For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered. 1 Corinthians 11:6
-
Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. 1 Peter 3:3
Living by God’s design in our brotherhood interactions
-
The Brethren have historically been very active socially. We enjoy gathering after Sunday church services for a fellowship meal or during the week when a visitor is traveling through.
-
The Brethren value and encourage healthy interaction among individuals of various age brackets. In an era where such connections are often overlooked, we firmly believe that cultivating strong relationships between the older and younger generations can be a tremendous blessing. “Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.” 1 Peter 5:5
-
Our young people meet frequently to interact and enjoy being together. Sometimes they gather to play games, sing, or for an organized Bible study.
-
We also encourage our people to be active in service activities within the local community. We want to be contributors in society.
