SERVICE DETAILS
CONGREGATIONAL SINGING
Together we life our voices in praise - blending traditional hymns and modern worship songs that celebrates God's love and truth. We aim to keep the focus on God through praise and worship, so you will not find excessively loud instruments or fancy light shows here.
Hide us behind the Cross.
​
PREACHING
Each message at our church is rooted in God's Word and shared with clarity, truth, and love. Practical and Christ-centered teaching, helping you apply biblical truths to everyday life while revealing God's character.
​
INVITATION / RESPONSE
At the end of each service, we offer a time of invitation and response - a quiet meaningful moment to reflect on God's Word. Whether you'd like to pray, make a decision of faith, or simply spend time with God, our pastors are here to support you.
CHILDREN
CHILDREN'S CHURCH
Between the end of singing and the beginning of preaching, we offer a time for children (ages 3 - 5th grade) to quietly exit the sanctuary to attend children's church. In children's church kids are able to have an environment that promotes and engaging atmosphere for learning on their level. There are occasional Sundays that we do family worship and children's church is not running. You'll find the schedule in the bulletin.
NURSERY
Upstairs you'll find a fully equipped nursery ready for your children from birth - 3 years old. There are volunteers ready to love on your babies while you enjoy worship.
*all child care workers are background checked & vetted prior to serving in kids ministry.
