Welcome
The Eastside Church of Christ in Midwest City, Oklahoma is a congregation of Christ followers. We serve Christ by serving those around us. As a church of Christ, we strive to worship the same way the church worshipped in the New Testament. In our assembly, we follow the patterns set in the Bible by the early Christians, as they followed the guidance of the apostles. It is our prayer that you see Jesus in us. Join us for our Sunday services!
What To Expect
If you have never visited one of our services, you might not know what to expect.
Our worship is simple and a service typically lasts a little over an hour, and is led by members of the congregation. We believe the Bible has laid out everything that is part of worship. Worship includes Gospel Preaching – Acts 5:42, Praying – Acts 12:5, a cappella Singing – Colossians 3:16, Observance of the Lord's Supper – Acts 20:7, 1 Corinthians 11:17-34 , and a voluntary Member Contribution to support God’s ministry, 1 Corinthians 16:1-2 and 2 Corinthians 8:1-5.
We sing ‘a cappella,’ or without instruments. It may seem simple, but it follows the pattern of the early church. We hope to please God as we worship and praise His name. In fact, the word “a cappella” is Latin for “as in church.”
As an important part of our worship, we observe the Lord’s Supper every Sunday, as was done by the church, recorded in Acts 20:7. It is not a big meal, but unleavened bread and individual cups of grape juice provided for all the Christians who wish to participate. The Lord's supper was instituted by Jesus. One gospel record describes it in Matthew 26:26-29. This was not meant to be a great feast, but a memorial, and a physical proclamation (1 Corinthians 11:26). So in partaking each Sunday ,we take part in proclaiming the Lord’s death until he comes.
We will also pass around a collection plate for a goodwill offering to be given by each of our members to allow the ministries of the church to continue. Guests are neither, required, nor expected to give.
Our preacher will deliver a message from God's Word, educating us and encouraging us to live Godly lives.
An attended nursery is available for babies. We also have a room for nursing mothers and a training room in the North foyer. We hope you will hang around after worship so we can get to know you a little better.
