You’re warmly invited to visit us in person! Want to know a little more before you join us? Here are a few answers to some questions you might have:
When Are Your Services?
Sunday mornings at 8:30am and 10:15am
What Should I Expect When I Visit?
As you arrive you will find plenty of parking. When you enter into the lobby you will be met by one of our greeters with a smile and an offer to answer any questions. You’ll likely catch the aroma of fresh coffee coming from our Connections Cafe area. If you need help finding your way, stop by the Information Table. The T.V. monitors offer highlights of upcoming events and opportunities for you and your family.
We have chairs in our main gathering area, and as the service begins, we think you will enjoy the enthusiastic and inspirational worship that we bring to God. Our pastors make every effort in their teaching to bring practical messages that demonstrate the relevancy of the Bible to life today.
Where Do I Take My Children (birth-5th grade)?
Just down the hall in our Christian Education Wing you will find a Welcome Center where our friendly volunteers will help you complete a check in form for your child(ren). This will help us know how to best care for your child. Check out our safety and drop-off procedures to find out more information on how we make it a priority to keep your child(ren) safe.
Do You Have Something For My Teenager?
Yes! Our Youth Ministry is designed specifically to address the challenges teens face in a way that keeps them interested and excited to be here. There is a class for 6th-12th graders during the 8:30 service. The class during the 10:15 service is for 6th-12th graders. Classes start after worship and meet in the North Portable, which you can see from inside the Lobby.
What Do I Wear?
If you like to wear jeans or if you like to dress up…come as you are. You’ll feel at home either way.
What Do We Believe?
You can read about the truths that fuel our faith at this page:
Are You Affiliated With A Denomination?
