Welcome to the web site for Providence Christian Church. Thank you for taking the time to browse this page.
Providence Christian Church is a congregation of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Located in historic Lexington, KY, the congregation is over 180 years old.
On Sundays, the morning begins with Sunday School at 9:30 a.m.
There are two classes for adults and six classes for children and youth.
Worship begins at 10:45 a.m. in a relaxed atmosphere. A wide variety of music
is used in the service, from Bach to Bluegrass. Contemporary music is valued
and so are the classic organ hymns.
A Casual/Contemporary Worship Service is featured on Sunday evenings at 7:00 p.m. This service uses contemporary praise choruses, Bible Study and upbeat music to appeal to Gen X'ers. Child care is available.
During worship a Nursery is provided for children to age 2. Toddler Worship is provided for children ages 3 to 5. Junior Worship is offered to children from 5 years to 11 years.
There is and Adult Bible Study which meets at 9:00 a.m. on Fridays and engages itself with an in-depth study of the Song of Songs.
Our ChristianYouth Fellowship is for teens from 9th to 12th grades and it meets on Sundays at 5:00 p.m. The Chi Rho Fellowship is for middle school teens and meets at 5:00 p.m. on Sundays also.
Wednesday evenings bring Choir rehearsal at 6:30 p.m. The Choir is an exciting place to serve God. There is also a Chimes Choir which rehearses at 7:45 p.m.
Also on Wednesdays we hold
Christian
Children's Fellowship at 6:30
p.m. The children are studying "Pathways to Discovery," which takes them
through the Bible. Children are very active in the life of the
congregation.
The congregation has completed a Strategic Planning process in order to expand its ministry into the next millenium. This important process brings intentionality to our ministries and unifies the congregation with a Mission Statement. The congregation has begun a Two Phase building project. Phase I to be completed in 2000 is to renovate the current facility. Phase II, which will follow on the heels of Phase I is the construction of an education/recreational/fellowship space to adjoin our current facility.
