Our church is all about reaching the community. We're friendly, pleasant, and non-critical. We have upbeat music and relevant, applicable, and easy-to-understand messages. We are casual, comfortable, and a good fit, just like a nice pair of jeans. In fact, you are welcome even if you are wearing jeans. If you remember your grandparents church as being boring, snore time, sit down and be quiet time, then we're not your grandparents church. You'll feel comfortable, like at home, but you won't be singled out.

When you check us out you'll get a friendly smile, a handshake, and a hug, if you're comfortable with that. You can get your coffee, tea, or water, or nothing at all. Just be refreshed, feel at home, and enjoy the service.

As you find your seat you'll be given a weekend worship guide containing announcements, an information card, and more importantly, an interactive outline of the message. You'll hear upbeat songs to help relax you.

As the service starts, you'll listen to (and hopefully join in) singing of current and soon-to-be familiar Christian songs led by the praise band. There are no bothersome hymnals to use; just follow the melody, the beat, and the words up on the screen. You're welcome to tap, clap, sing, and otherwise praise and worship our Lord. You'll be given an opportunity to greet those seated nearby.

A brief prayer follows the songs and the message commences. You can follow your outline and the key points on the screen. As you listen and make notes on your outline you'll be able to identify key ideas that are relevant to you and that you'll be able to use immediately. If you think the outline may be useful to someone else additional copies will be available. A summary of some of the most recent messages is here; a list of the upcoming topics is available on our home page.

Pre-school and elementary-aged kids have child care provided in their own place, Kid's Place, that starts, not coincidentally, with the start of the message. This keeps the kids learning and growing so the adults can learn and grow, too. Usually, youth have their own service as well. This starts with the start of the message.

After the message there will be a few announcements and a final song. Then we all participate in our tasty luncheon. Yummy!

Sometimes we have additional activities. In these you're welcome to participate if you wish. You'll find details about additional activities here on the web site, and in the weekend worship guide.

We're always ready for your comments. You can fill out the communication card--a tear-off part of the weekend worship guide, or contact whom you wish on our contact page. Your comments will be read.
