Powhatan typically holds church services on Sundays and Wednesdays.
Sunday School
Starting at 9:45 am on Sunday mornings, we meet in various Sunday School classes to learn about the Bible and the foundations of our faith. These small-group settings give us a solid grounding in both the theory and application of living a Christian life, teaching us to develop a closer relationship with God and our fellow man. For details about our classes, see our Sunday School page.
Worship Service
On Sunday mornings, after Sunday School, we meet in the sanctuary from 11 am to noon for our Worship Service. Our service is mostly traditional, with both hymns and contemporary praise-and-worship songs from the choir and congregation, prayer requests, and occasional special music leading up to a Bible-based and Spirit-led sermon. You can find recorded sermons on our Sermons page.
Bible Study
Our 6 pm Sunday-evening service is more relaxed and interactive. We meet in the Fellowship Hall and enjoy coffee while our pastor leads us in our Bible study. Questions and comments are welcomed, as we all seek to learn together.
Prayer Meeting
On Wednesday nights at 7 pm, we hold our Prayer Meeting in the Fellowship Hall. The informal setting allows us to study and practice what God’s Word tells us about prayer.
Family Night
On the first Wednesday after the first Sunday in each month, our Prayer Meeting is replaced with a Family Night service. We have service/study groups for each family member to attend. The Laymen’s League meets in the Sonshiners classroom, the Woman’s Auxiliary meets in the new Fellowship Hall, and the Youth meet in the Original Fellowship Hall.
On the first Family Night of each new quarter (January, April, July, and October), we share a covered-dish dinner at 6 pm. Bring something to share, or just come and take part in the fellowship. Family Night services follow at 7 pm.
Sunrise Service
On Easter Morning, we meet around the cross out front at 6:45 am to share the Resurrection Morning sunrise. The service is brief, with a song or two, a short message, and prayer, and is followed by breakfast in the Fellowship Hall.
