Sunday Worship Service

Join us for worship on Sunday mornings at 10:30 am and at 5 pm on the 1st Sunday.

Worship is the heartbeat of Decatur Presbyterian Church, the most important hour of the week. In worship, we offer praise, receive forgiveness, listen to God’s Word, pray for the needs of the world, and offer ourselves as living sacrifices to God.
