Torquay Christadelphians
"Let the Bible speak for itself"
Sunday Morning Service (Memorial Service)
Every Sunday morning at 11.00am we meet for our "Memorial Service". Our worship together includes Bible readings, hymns, prayers, and an "exhortation" (talk) based on the Bible given by an invited speaker. All baptised Christadelphians share the bread and wine to remember Jesus' sacrifice on our behalf.
Our aim is to reach back to first century beliefs and practices, and so the Christadelphian approach to Sunday morning worship is reasonably conservative by some modern standards. Christadelphian women wear hats during the service. We do this in accordance with the Apostle Paul's teaching in 1 Corinthians 11:3-10. This is not expected of non-Christadelphians.
Sunday Evening Service (Bible Hour)
On Sunday evenings at 6.00pm we hold our "Bible Hour". Talks are based around the core principles of the message of the Bible. The meetings can vary in format from Family Services to classic lecture-style presentations, often with PowerPoint. These family evenings are suitable for all audiences and we warmly invite all to come and join us.
During both these services there are prayers, hymns, Bible readings and Bible-based talks. We base our beliefs solely on the Bible and use the Bible as a guide for our lives.
