Our Services
- Sunday
-
- 08:30am
- The Traditional service is a more formal, classical service expressing historical elements: call to worship, responsive readings, acolytes, lay worship leaders, organ and traditional hymns, chancel choir, special music, instruments, doxology, Lord’s prayer, children’s sermon, mission moments, handbell choirs, and more. The Lord’s Supper is observed the first Sunday of each month, served by our Deacons.
- 11:00am
- The Praise and Worship service weaves together music from all styles (top 100 contemporary songs, modern music, 80′s, classic rock, and hymns) with a little Tabasco. It draws together ancient biblical worship, classical traditions, and the entire history of the Church – particularly the Reformers and evangelicals - in an atmosphere of casual dress and current customs. The vision is creating a service where people feel rooted in the Biblical story, connected to God and others, and authentic in their faith and practice. We affirm the Bible as the final authority in all matters of faith and practice. The service is lead by the Worship Team.
