What to Expect

What are services like?
People gather here weekly to be in the presence of Jesus. God visits us with His Word and His gifts. Awed by the majesty of God’s presence, we return back to Him thanks and praise by praying and singing songs. The pastor preaches the Word of God, explaining a passage of the Bible each week. The Word of God both tells us who God is and who we are to be. It is deeply practical for both how we should think and what we should do. For those who have been taught its meaning and purpose, the Lord’s Supper is celebrated for the faithful to receive the forgiveness of sins, life, and salvation. We would love all to join us for this special meal, but we ask that any guests and visitors talk to the pastor before receiving this gift of God.

What is the community like?
We are gathered week-by-week by Jesus Christ our Shepherd so that He might nourish us with His Word and sustain us by His love. Grounded in Jesus’ truth, we are built up and ready to confront any of the dangers and difficulties of this life. We are also guided into the way of everlasting life, prepared for the age to come after we die. Jesus also gathers us so that we may sing His praises as we are invigorated by His Holy Spirit, and presented to our Heavenly Father as His beloved children. Lastly, we are knit together as Jesus’ body, where the many individual persons, are all members of Jesus’ one body, caring for one another in both body and soul.

What if I'm not a Christian?
All people are invited to hear the Word of God proclaimed and applied to your life. If you want to explore what it means to become a child of God and to begin to follow the Lord's ways, we offer a personalized path to learning the basics and receiving the fullness of God's grace.
