Below is yesterday’s worship service at Calabash. I led that service as our pastor was officiating a wedding out of state.

Yesterday evening, the Whiteville Worshipping Community met for its weekly gathering. Our topic of conversation was “disciplining.”

Disciplining is different than witnessing and requires much more relational commitment than witnessing. Jesus told us to make disciples (not witnesses). Oh, disciples will witness, but disciples will do much more than witness. They will invest time in the person with whom they have shared Christ.

A disciple is an apprentice (a learner) and by the disciple’s example, the disciple teaches that person in whom they have invested their effort and time how to be an apprentice/learner like him or her.

The Apostle Paul said it well- read Philippians 3:8-17. Paul said, “Imitate me.” Can we say to others “imitate me?” In as much as we are striving to learn from Jesus, we should be able to say that.

The Whiteville Worshipping Community is a “micro expression of church and is a missional outreach of Calabash Covenant Presbyterian Church. The WWC is led by CLP Annelle Waldron.

Statement of Purpose
The purpose of our micro expression of church is to provide opportunities for “in home worship and fellowship” with other believers in Jesus Christ, and to provide a safe environment for folks who are not yet believers to learn more about Jesus and come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. We see ourselves as “disciples making disciples” for the kingdom of God. Above all else, that is our purpose.

The WWC has been in existence since February of 2021. Our worshippers are from many different Christian backgrounds and most are members of a church. However, it is not necessary that you be affiliated with a church to come gather with us to learn more about Jesus.

We began as a gathering of 10 to 20 worshippers ranging in age from teens to retirees, with all ages between represented. Originally, our weekly gatherings began at 6 p.m. on Sunday with a time for refreshments and fellowship followed by prayer requests, prayers, testimonies, and Bible Studies, with rich discussion by all who are gathered. Also, originally, all ages met together for worship and study, and as the numbers increased, the young people began meeting at 5 p.m. for their own time of worship, joining the arriving older adults at 6 p.m. for refreshments and fellowship. Then, at 6:30 the older adults gathered for worship. Presently, the younger group are not meeting, and we are considering going back to one meeting time at 6 p.m. for all. I will update as decisions are made concerning the youth program.

If you live in the Whiteville area, you are invited to join us at 6 p.m. on Sunday evening. We meet at the home of Rob and Annelle Waldron, at 73 Greenwood Road, Whiteville, NC.

The page for the Whiteville Worshipping Community has been inactive for some time. This post is for the purpose of updating our followers on activities recently.

The Whiteville Worshipping Community continues to meet on Sunday even at 6 p.m. for refreshments and fellowship at the home of Rob and Annelle Waldron. After spending time with one another, we settle down to worship as we engage with Scripture. Right now, we are following a guided study on the book of Genesis. We have time for prayer requests and sharing of needs, and time for prayer.

We would love to have you come worship with us. The welcome mat will be out to receive you!
