To make your first time with us more enjoyable, we have prepared
this list of frequently asked questions to help you know what to expect.
When are service times?
Our Sunday service is at 10:30am. Sunday Morning Bible study groups meet at 9:15am. Our Wednesday adult prayer service is at 6:00pm. We also have activities for students and children at 6:00pm.
Where do I park?
We have parking lots all around the church campus. Handicap parking is located in all parking lots, including by the sanctuary entrance. There is a covered entrance in the west side parking lot and rear parking lot. The rear parking lot and entrance is closest to the preschool and nursery area.
Is there handicap access?
There are handicap parking spaces in the west parking lot and ramped access at the front of the Sanctuary, Our greeters will help you into the building, and once inside, our ushers will help you to a seat. The sanctuary has accommodations for wheelchairs on the main floor as well as a chair-lift in the hallway leading to the sanctuary.
Is childcare available?
During our Sunday Morning Bible Study, your child will be in an age-graded class with caring teachers who will help your child learn about God. So that you may attend both a Bible study class and morning worship service, this time is extended to a second hour for children birth through age five. For kindergarten through 5th grade, we offer children’s church during morning worship, but your child may remain with you in the sanctuary for worship if you prefer.
What happens before the service starts?
If you arrive early, you will find that others have come early. Many people enjoy the time of fellowship and getting acquainted. As you enter the sanctuary, you will receive a bulletin which gives you information about the service as well as other ministries and activities during coming weeks. There is a connection card in the pew racks on which you can request specific information about our church, request prayer, and share any decision you make. You can fill it out and either drop it in the offering plate during the service or leave it on your pew after the service.
What happens if I arrive late?
Don’t worry. Our ushers will help you find a seat as quickly and discreetly as possible.
What is the worship service like?
Services generally last about one hour. Our 10:30am worship service features a praise team, choir, and instruments. Our music includes everything from hymns to today’s latest worship songs. Our sermons are all Biblically-based..
Am I expected to give for the offering?
While we encourage the practice of tithing among our members, our guests are not expected to give anything. However, we do have offering collection boxes located throughout the building that you are more than welcome to drop your offering off in. Also, if you have filled out the Connection Card, you can drop it in the offering collection boxes located throughout the building.
