Frequently Asked Questions
About this website...
- Do I have to register to use this site?
No, you don't have to register but there are certain areas of the website that you will not be able to access. When you register an email will automatically be sent. If you reply to the email you will be registered. Or you can decline at that point.
- How do I make a prayer request?
It's really quite simple. Go to the Prayer page (under the Connect in Community menu). Here you will find our Prayer Board. You can add a prayer request by clicking on Add An Entry, then fill out the form and then click on the Add Your Prayer button. Your prayer request will be added to the list.
- What is a blog?
A blog is Internet shorthand for a web-log. Millions of people all over the world are "blogging" as a way to share their ideas, opinions and information. Visit the Pastor's blog to read his musings and feel free to comment!
- What other features will be added to this website?
As the church grows we have the capability to add many more features to this website which will make it even more useful, including the pastor's sermons (in audio & video), on-line newsletters, forums, interactive Bible studies and other classes, RSS feeds and much more.
About this new church...
- Do you have property?
No, not yet, although that certainly is our dream and long-range goal. Ideally we'd love to find property on Lake Pleasant Road or along the Loop 303 as it is expanded north from Happy Valley Road.
- Why are you starting worship on Saturdays?
Until Sunday morning becomes available we will begin our weekly worship schedule on Saturdays beginning Saturday, September 6th at 5pm. at Vistancia Elementary School. Nursery and children's classes will also be offered.
- What is a "preview" worship service?
We could also call these first services "pre-Launch" services, but in reality preview services are no different than any other worship service. We are calling them preview services until we "launch" Spirit Song later in October.
- When will you officially "Launch" Spirit Song?
We've targeted the last Saturday in October, the 25th, for our official grand opening "Launch" with a big advertising and direct mail campaign. In the meantime we will continue to worship, to grow, to train leaders and to be in ministry to the communities and families of north Peoria.
- When do you plan to move your weekly worship to Sunday mornings?
We're planning on moving to a Sunday morning worship schedule once the school becomes available, hopefully in December or January.
- How can I help financially?
Launching a new church is an expensive undertaking with minimal resources. You can help by sending donations to Willowbrook UMC, 19390 North 99th Avenue, Sun City, AZ 85373. In the memo field be sure and note: for Spirit Song UMC. And Thank You!
