What belongs to the beginning of the worship service? This article mentions typical elements found at the opening of a Reformed church service, and the reasons for them: a votum, salutation from God, and an opening song of praise. It also discusses the practices of prayer in the consistory room before the service, the silent prayer when the office-bearers have entered the auditorium, and the call to worship.
