Attend Saturday night church

Church worship services are for Sunday and Wednesday, right?
Not if you work on Sundays and Wednesdays.
Many people miss out on regular worship services due to their work.
Not only do they miss out on a good sermon, but the fellowship of other believers.
One local church has a solution.
The Harvest Church on Sunset Blvd. in Lexington offers Saturday night worship. Pastor Ken Jumper said it was started to give working people another option for worship.
“People who aren’t able to attend Sunday service will still be able to receive an encouraging word from one of our pastors and have the chance to meet new friends,” Pastor Ken said.
The Saturday night service is not much different from the usual Sunday worship service according to Pastor Richard Lang. He was the supporting pastor with Pastor Ken for the Saturday night service until recently, when he took on other responsibilities.
Now, Pastor Xavier Holmes, a student at CIU, has taken over as supporting pastor.
Their goal is to give all services the same message. Different pastors deliver the message in their own style.
Currently, 50-75 people are attending Saturday service. Groups are quite diverse with more than 25 nationalities, including members from 12 Hispanic countries.
At special times throughout the year, someone opens with a prayer in their own native language. The service is uplifting and fun for all and teaches about other cultures.
One thing they are hoping for is growth. So, I’m asking my readers to help us spread the word about this unique service.
Let your friends and family who work on Sunday know about this option for weekly worship.
