Sunday Worship
We invite you to join us on Sunday mornings. The attire and atmosphere are casual reflecting our love for families and children. The worship service begins at 10:30 a.m. with a time of singing and prayer followed by a sermon message. The service generally lasts about seventy-five minutes, and we enjoy an informal time of fellowship before and after the service, including a weekly informal potluck lunch.
A children's table and chairs with quiet activities are set up in the back of the sanctuary. There are two rooms for families with children, the nursing mothers’ room and the active child room. They both have one way glass and a sound system so you can still see and hear the service as you tend to your children's needs. Additionally, we offer sermon time childcare in the nursery area for infants to 5th grade.
The first Sunday of every month will be a Family Service in which all children will stay in the service with their parents/guardians. This will allow families to be together to celebrate Communion and will give children the opportunity to see all the components of an entire church service. Although there will be no Kids' Church on those Sundays, the Nursing Mom's Room, Active Child Room, and Children's Table in the rear of the sanctuary will be available as usual.
If you are unable to attend Sunday morning, the service is recorded and available to view anytime during the week.
