Service Times & Styles
Linworth offers two unique worship experiences on Sunday mornings. Each service has its own personality and style.
Traditional Worship
9:00am Sunday Mornings
Our traditional worship service is rooted in the rich history and traditions of the United Methodist denomination and of the Christian church. It features classic hymns, traditional liturgy, and a formal structure that invites contemplation and reverence.
Music is led by our Chancel Choir accompanied most commonly by piano or pipe organ. Our Reverberation Ringers handbell choir performs regularly as well. Services often feature additional string, brass, and woodwind performances or accompaniment throughout the year.
Contemporary Worship
10:30am Sunday Mornings
Our contemporary worship service is designed to engage a diverse and modern congregation. It features contemporary music, informal and interactive elements, and a relaxed atmosphere that encourages participation and connection.
Music is led by our Worship Band and includes drums, keyboards, acoustic & electric guitars, and layered harmonies on top of vocal melodies. Our music selection is meant to be engaging and accessible, allowing anyone to join along in singing together as they are comfortable.
