Eucharistic Worship is one of three practices by which we Journey with Christ to the Mountain, the other two being Daily Prayer and Contemplative Prayer.
Eucharistic Worship is a priestly practice of being Worshipers.
We journey with Christ to the Mountain in Eucharistic Worship in all of our Sunday worship services and in other Festival Assemblies, including membership services such as weddings, baptisms, ordinations, etc. As Worshipers, beginning in convergent Eucharistic worship, we embrace the revelation of the Word of God through creation, in Scripture and by the Spirit. Thus by this practice we affirm that Basileia is both an expression of and is in unity with the three streams of the Church, which are liturgical and sacramental, Evangelical and Reformed, and Orthodox and charismatic.
