No matter how friendly and welcoming a church is, visiting any church for the first time can be a little intimidating.  You may be wondering things like What is the worship service like?  Where do I sit?  What is expected of me?  Are my children welcome?

As you enter our church you will be welcomed by greeters.  Ushers will hand you a worship bulletin and will help you find a seat if necessary.  There is plenty of seating in the sanctuary.  Sit wherever you like, there are no reserved seats except some front rows occasionally marked for music groups..

 At the start of our service, we greet our visitors and guests with words of welcome.   We do pass a record of attendance book through each pew and if you choose, you may sign in to let us know you came.   We often have a moment when we rise in body or in spirit and greet those around us.  You are welcome to participate as you are comfortable.  During our construction period, fellowship takes place informally in the sanctuary after the service concludes. You are welcome to stay, join in conversation, or ask any questions you may have.

Our worship services are easy to follow by using the bulletin and they last about an hour.  Our services include the singing of hymns, some traditional and others contemporary with music provided for all, special music from a choir, vocal or instrumental group, scripture readings and prayers.  After a brief children's message, grade-school children may leave to attend Sunday School classes which are located downstairs and in our educational wing.  One of the pastors shares a sermon, which may be followed by communion.  In our church, communion is open and served to all who profess faith in Jesus Christ.

An offering is received each Sunday.  Our members and regular attendees freely give to support our ministries.  As our guest, you may participate as you feel led.

Childcare is available during the 10:30 AM service with a staffed nursery room for infants and toddlers.  All nursery and Sunday School staff have passed our child protection policy background check.  Ask an usher if you need help locating the nursery.

We hope this has been a helpful guide.
