What happens during Sunday School?

We currently have 2 adult classes that meet as well as our youth and children classes. These classes are laid-back and informal in nature, but at the same time very informative and designed to help each individual grow closer to Jesus and deeper in their knowledge and understanding of what it means to be a Christian.

What happens during the Worship Service?

On a typical Sunday morning we sing songs and enjoy our worship team, read Scripture, pray, share announcements about upcoming events, hear a sermon, and enjoy a few laughs or two!

What can I expect when I walk in the Church?

One of the things that we have heard over the years from folks is that they feel welcome and cared for when they walk into the Church. We have a great group of people who make up the Church, and they are great at extending the family atmosphere to newcomers. You will be greeted by one of our ushers and handed a bulletin which has announcements and upcoming event information.

You will notice people hanging around, drinking coffee, and catching up with each other on what has happened during the previous week. Make yourself at home by getting some coffee from the coffee room, or making your way into the Sanctuary, and please feel free to sit anywhere. We don’t have any assigned seats!

What do I wear?

Most people dress casually and comfortably. We have people who wear shorts and t-shirts, others who wear jeans and a polo, and others still who will wear a suit and tie or a dress. There is no dress code, and we want each person to feel comfortable in what they have on.

What do I do with my children during the Worship Service?

We love kids! And we also understand that sometimes they can be a little rambunctious once they have been sitting for a long time. We have the nursery available (0-3 yr. olds) during the entire Worship Service. Please feel free to bring your babies in the service or leave them with our caring nursery volunteers at any point you would like. Every Sunday we also have a children’s message in our Children’s Church, where we invite all the kids to join. This class begins at 11am, as well, and is available for 4 yr. olds up to grade 5.
