Ginghamsburg Church

What are services like?
Our in-person worship celebrations typically last about 60 minutes. The celebration will begin with a rotation of slides promoting upcoming events, before a three-minute countdown alerts you to find your seat. Next, you’ll be welcomed into a time of music led by a live band. The words of the songs will be displayed on large LED screens. Many people will sing along and you can too. Participate as you feel comfortable. We use music as a way to express our love for God and appreciation for what God has done for us. There will likely be a few times that one of the leaders will pray during worship. You might be asked to sit or to stand up during those prayers. We’ll always make sure you know exactly what to do and we won’t leave you guessing. At some point during worship, a live or on-video host will highlight details of upcoming events or share a cool story. There will also be an invitation to support the ministry and mission of the church. One of our pastors will teach a lesson from the Bible. Our goal is to help everyone understand the Bible and to apply it to their lives. The teaching will be practical and challenging, and hopefully will inspire you in your personal pursuit of God. On some occasions we host baptisms. Other times we celebrate communion or welcome new members. At every service, we’ll have a host who will explain what’s happening during worship so that there are no surprises. We like to celebrate holidays with special focus…join us on Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, Martin Luther King Jr weekend, back-to-school time and other culturally poignant holidays, as well as our favorites: Christmas and Easter. Expect something a little different on these special Sundays.

What is the community like?
One thing our United Methodist congregation is known for is actually doing something with our love for Jesus. We believe we are the only hands and feet, and the only bank account God has. This is evidenced by the wide-ranging expressions of community partnerships born out of the passions of our people and the millions of dollars invested in the lives of people all over the world. We’re also not shy about our focus on intentional diversity, using media and storytelling to advance the gospel and our desire to see every kid within our reach go to bed with faith, family and food. It all starts with family, and empowering the leaders of every household to guide their loved ones into a richer relationship with Jesus Christ. Our ultimate goal is for everyone at Ginghamsburg Church to take faith at their own pace. It’s a place to heal. It’s a place to influence healthy family change. It won’t be boring. Your kids can fart and be free! But more importantly, we’ll help your kids figure out what they’re good at so they and their friends can change the world.

What if I'm not a Christian?
All are welcome. We believe that Jesus eats with everyone. Come, ask questions, stay as long as you like.
