While our services typically follow a general flow, we remain sensitive and open to the leading of the Holy Spirit. We believe God moves in dynamic and sometimes unexpected ways, and we make space for His presence to guide us. This means that on any given Sunday, the order may shift, elements may be extended or paused, and new expressions of ministry may emerge. Our heart is not to stick rigidly to a schedule, but to follow where He leads — because His plans are always better than ours. 

When you walk through our doors, expect to step into an atmosphere charged with heartfelt worship. Our services often begin with passionate praise and worship—songs that invite the Holy Spirit and lift up the name of Jesus. We don’t rush through worship. Our goal is not just a song list—it's an encounter. We desire for everyone to move beyond the natural and step into the supernatural. You’ll often hear encouragement to go deeper in the Spirit and allow God’s presence to bring healing, joy, and restoration. A typical Sunday service will have anywhere between 4-6 songs, but are subject to change as the Holy Spirit wills and guides the service. 

Our offering time is not a pause in worship; it is worship. Giving is not a ritual — it's a powerful act of faith. We believe that believers should be living in the overflow of God's abundance. Whether it is Pastor Michelle, or any other members of our pastoral team, we teach and encourage generosity rooted in wisdom, understanding, and obedience. We’re not into religious tradition or manipulation — we’re into spiritual breakthrough. Whether it's getting out of debt, growing a business, or learning to steward finances well, we believe God wants His people equipped, empowered, and free from lack. That’s why we sow — not out of pressure, but with faith that every seed has supernatural potential.

Before diving deeper into the service, we take a moment for a few key announcements and housekeeping. This is where you’ll hear about upcoming events, important reminders, and any church-wide updates. It’s also a great way to stay in the loop and get connected with what’s happening in the life of our community. During this time, we also release our children children's church. Our amazing Carmel Kids team is ready to create a safe, fun, and faith-filled environment where your kids can encounter Jesus at their level. If you're new and have children with you, no worries — our team will help you check them in and find where they need to go. We value families, and we love seeing the next generation grow strong in the Lord.

 At the heart of our service is the preaching of the Word — a time where we open Scripture and allow the Holy Spirit to speak to us through sound teaching, prophetic insight, and practical truth. Expect practical, Spirit-led teaching that flows from the Word of God and the heart of our leaders. This is more than a message; it’s a moment to encounter God, be challenged, encouraged, and equipped to walk in His purpose. Our pastors and speakers bring a Word that is fresh, Spirit-led, and biblically grounded. Whether you’re a long-time believer or just beginning to explore faith, we believe the message will speak to you right where you are — and move you forward in your journey with Jesus.

After the Word, we return to a moment of praise or reflection through song, allowing what we've heard to settle in our hearts. This is also a sacred time for personal ministry and prayer. If you're in need of healing, breakthrough, encouragement, or simply want someone to stand with you in faith, our ministry team is available at the front to pray with you.

After the service, we invite you to stick around for a time of fellowship. We believe that church is more than just a service — it's a family. This is a chance to connect with others, meet new faces, and enjoy snacks and refreshments served in the fellowship hall.
