What to Expect

What are services like?
We follow a traditional liturgy with a contemporary flare to it. There is a lot of music, prayer, meditation and powerful preaching. An opportunity to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Savior is offered as well as an invitation to join our community is offered following the sermon. Holy Communion is celebrated on the first Sunday of each month at our main worship experience.

What is the community like?
We are a mission-oriented people busy in the work of showing Jesus Christ to the world outside our doors and to those who venture in.

What if I'm not a Christian?
Non-Christians are welcome to come and learn of the Christ we profess. We will not "hard-sell" you but will not make any excuses for our faith or attempt to hide it in the spirit of Ecumenism.
