Sunday morning worship

Our Sunday morning worship begins at 10 a.m. Our service is traditional in nature, singing the great hymns of the Christian faith, observing the Lord’s Supper, and hearing the Word of God preached.

Sunday evening worship

Sunday evening worship, beginning at 6 p.m., is more informal, with worshipers picking favorite hymns to sing. During the song service, questions may be asked of the pastor regarding anything biblical. We celebrate communion and proclaim the Scriptures.

Wednesday prayer meeting

We meet on Wednesday afternoons at 1:00 for prayer meeting in the church’s fellowship hall. After a brief Bible study, we share prayer requests and pray together.

Texas Christian Church is an active member of the Clinton Area Ministerial Association. This collection of churches works together to meet the needs of De Witt County in the name of Christ.  Pastor Scott is currently serving as president of CAMA. The ministers of the participating churches meet monthly.
