We invite all to come and join us for our Sunday Services. We have a lot going on each Sunday and we are
sure there is something for you! Our services include a wonderful time of Praise and Worship with our own
Praise Band. Our weekly message comes straight from the Bible. Currently we are studying the Gospel
of Matthew.

WORSHIP:
When you pull into the parking lot the building on the LEFT is the Worship Center. Enter the worship building through the glass doors. We have two services at 9:00 AM and 10:45 A.M. Inside the glass doors you will find a spacious lobby and Welcome Center where someone can answer any questions that you have. Our Welcome Team can help you find nurseries and children's ministries or most anything else you are looking for.
DRESS:
Our worship attire could probably be described as "business casual" -- nice but comfortable. No one is here to impress anyone but we want to show respect to the Lord. There certainly is no dress code! A few people wear ties and jackets like our pastor usually does, but for the most part folks wear comfortable clothes that honor the Lord.
MUSIC:
Our worship style is contemporary with a praise band. Our goal is not to make a show or production but rather to lead God's people into passionate worship through relevant musical forms. We do not have a traditional church organ but we include contemporary arrangements of traditional hymns.
THE SERMON:
Dr. Hoy teaches through the Bible verse by verse emphasizing broad themes and topics that arise from the text. Currently we are studying the Gospel of Mark.
CHILDREN' WORSHIP:
Class Locations are listed in the "Faith Notes" bulletin you receive when entering worship.
FAITH TOWN:
At 9:00 A.M. we have a wonderful Children's Ministry for Kindergarten through 5th grade called "Faith Town" that is located in our Fellowship Building. Children are excited to gather for their own worship service with music, a message and then special weekly activity.
HEART SHAPERS:
At 10:45 A.M. we welcome children Kindergarten through 5th grade to attend the beginning of worship and share in a special Children's Message led by Pastor Ann Hoy. After the Children's Message, the kids leave together for "Heart Shapers" which is wonderful deeper training in Bible skills and knowledge. Your child can be picked up from a class room in the Fellowship Building. Someone at the Welcome Center can help if you need directions. You are welcome to go with your child to their class for a few minutes to make sure they are comfortable, meet the teacher, and identify where they will be.
PRE-SCHOOLERS:
At both the 9:00 A.M. and 10:45 A.M. hours children age 2 years through 4 years (by September 1st) should report to their classrooms in the Fellowship Building where they will have fun learning activities and Bible lessons prepared for them. Children must be signed into class and retrieved through our identification badge system.
SAFETY:
All teachers and leaders work in pairs and are carefully trained and background checked with law enforcement to help ensure the safety of your child.
CRY ROOM:
We provide many alternatives for children. If you want your young child to worship with you, we provide a "Cry Room" in room 201 where you can see and hear everything in worship through privacy glass. This room is entered from the Lobby Hallway.
NURSING MOTHERS:
We also have a Nursing Mothers' Room in room 203 with privacy glass and service sound where mothers can enjoy worship while nursing their baby. This room is entered from the Lobby Hallway.
NURSERIES:
We also have an Infant Nursery in the Worship Building in room 200. We also have a Toddler Nursery in room 108 of the Fellowship Building. These nurseries are clean and professionally staffed where you can entrust your child to their loving care.
OFFERING:
We receive an offering during worship because this is a part of Biblical worship. Our church family rejoices to return to God tithes and offerings for the ministries of the Gospel.
COMMUNION:
We celebrate the Lord's Supper. This celebration is a remembrance of what God has done for us in the death and resurrection of Jesus. It is for Believers in the Lord Jesus Christ who trust in His grace for salvation. You are welcome to participate even if you are not a member of our local church. You are also welcome to refrain when the elements are passed if you prefer not to take part.
AFTER WORSHIP:
Pastor Jeff will be happy to meet you following the Worship Service at a table that is on the left side of the Worship Center. He will be available to answer any questions you might have about our church and share additional printed information with you.
COFFEE FELLOWSHIP:
We have a time of fellowship between Worship Services-- from 10:15 to 10:45 A.M. with great coffee and cookies. This is in the Fellowship Building which is the one to the right as you face our property.
COMMUNICATION:
Please be sure to register your attendance with us and fill out a yellow first timer form. Giving us your address, phone number and E-mail address will help us stay in touch with you. We will mail you a monthly newsletter called "Faith Matters" which will keep you in formed of upcoming ministry events. We also use E-mail to inform our church family of emergency needs and concerns that arise between Sunday services.
