PRAISE & WORSHIP

Praise and Worship is the heartbeat of our church family. It’s the moment we lift our voices and hearts to God, declaring His greatness, giving Him thanks, and creating an atmosphere where His presence fills the room.

  • Praise is our joyful celebration — a declaration of victory, thanksgiving, and gratitude for all God has done.

  • Worship is our intimate response — bowing our hearts in reverence, surrender, and adoration of who God is.

Together, praise and worship prepare our spirits to receive God’s Word, strengthen our faith, and align our hearts with His will.

“For God inhabits the praises of His people.” (Psalm 22:3)

At Open Doors Baptist Church, counselling is rooted in God’s Word. We listen with compassion, pray in agreement, and offer guidance according to Scripture. If you feel the need to speak with someone, please visit our ‘Contact Us’ page, and a member of our Leadership Team will respond confidentially and prayerfully.

FAMILY SERVICE

The children and youth meet every Sunday at Sunday School to study the Word of God through interactive lessons and engaging activities that help them grow in faith. However, three times a year we hold our Joint Family Service, where the children, youth, and the entire congregation come together as one family in Christ. These services are a time of unity, shared worship, and fellowship celebrating God’s goodness across all generations.
