Worship
Sunday Morning Worship
We worship each Sunday at 9:30AM both at the church and online.
Our worship includes prayer, Scripture, a message, songs, Holy Communion, and time together with friends in Christ.
There is a staffed nursery each Sunday and there is also a time during the worship when kids 3yrs-6th Grade break out into small groups for prayer, an activity, a Bible Story, and the like. This break-out time is called "Spark" and is around 20 minutes during the worship service.
You can access the livestream via our YouTube Channel at 9:30AM on Sundays. You can also find past worship videos, too.
Sensory Friendly
We try to offer a sensory friendly worship service. Several of our church members have children with sensory processing challenges and they have helped us provide a variety of resources, such as fidgets, weighted pads, and the like. We also have a sensory friendly room connected to the sanctuary. Mostly though: as a congregation, we welcome all our friends who live with sensory processing challenges and we hope you feel comfortable being who you are within the worship service and within the life of the church.
