WHAT TO EXPECT

What can I expect in a Sunday morning worship service?

Our worship service includes both contemporary and traditional elements. A typical service includes announcements, a selection of worship songs, a reading, and teaching of Scripture (about 30-45 mins). The entire service is usually about 1 1/2 hours.

On the first Sunday of each month, we celebrate the Lord’s Supper (Communion) together and the service is usually followed by a potluck. All are welcome to stay for the meal after the service.

We are a relatively small to mid-size community of believers. Community is important to us. Our desire is for you to feel welcome and to be inspired by the word of God, worship with us, and see what God is doing.

We preach from God’s word and are being shaped by the Holy Spirit, becoming instruments of service in God’s hands. We desire to help you develop in ministry and discipleship both at home and in foreign lands.

We currently offer our services in English only.
What time should I arrive?
Exploring God’s Word & Coffee Hour is from 9:15 AM to 10:15 AM. You are free to join us downstairs in the adult classroom as we dive deeper into the word of God and enjoy a cup of coffee together.

The Worship Service begins at 10:30 AM to 12 PM. You are welcome to join our community of believers as we worship our Creator and God in the sanctuary.
What kind of music do you play?
We sing both old and new songs in a combination of contemporary and traditional music styles. Our song selection is based on lyrical content with a God-centered focus. We do not necessarily agree with all the beliefs and practices of the songwriters of the songs we sing.
What do people wear?
Most people dress in attire anywhere from casual to business casual. The teaching elder/pastor and most elders/leaders typically dress more casually. We want you to come comfortably dressed in attire appropriate for the family or corporate gathering.
What age groups attend?
We have members ranging in age from young singles to retirees. We are a generational church and have families that have attended their whole lives and new young families that have just started attending. During the summer months, we get a wide range of visitors that are vacationing in the area. All are welcome and encouraged to participate.
What about childcare?
We offer childcare/nursery during the worship service. Loving child care is provided for infants to 3 years upstairs in the nursery during the service. Children's church is located downstairs for ages 3-5. Please visit the childcare check-in table in the lobby upon arrival for more information.
