What to Expect

What are services like?
We offer 2 traditional style worship services in the sanctuary - 1 early (~8:30) and later at 11 a.m. A contemporary family-friendly service is held at 9 a.m. in the auditorium. Worship times change in the summer months (June through September). Music is a huge part of all worship services with traditional worship music with a ~50 voice Chancel Choir, Brass Ensemble, Bell Choir, "journey" Band (contemporary Christian, and music opportunities for all ages of children and youth. Christian education and small groups are offered each Sunday for all ages and with additional offerings throughout the week.

What is the community like?
We are an inter-generational community of Christians. Some dress in jeans or shorts, others in suits and ties and everything in between! No one should be concerned about fitting it! We are made up of singles, families by many definitions and welcome all who wish to learn more with us about what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.

What if I'm not a Christian?
We hope you will give us a try. We ALL begin there at some point and the journey to becoming a believer is a gift to all. No one is turned away because of probing questions or doubts. It's just a starting point.
