What Should I Expect at Your Services?

Sunday AM
Sunday AM Worship Service begins at 11:00 AM. Everyone meets in the auditorium together for the beginning portion of the service (nursery is provided for entire service for children 3 and under). We will have a time of singing hymns, prayer, and an encouragement from the pastor to worship. After this portion of the service (usually about 20 minutes in length), Children are dismissed to attend Super Church (junior church), everyone else stays in the auditorium to hear the preaching of God's Word. Pastor is normally preaching through a book of the Bible expositionally (verse by verse). After the preaching time, we extend an opportunity to respond to the preaching by having an altar call. During this time anyone is welcome to pray at the front altar or at their pew. Men and ladies are available to visit with anyone who has questions. |
Sunday School
Sunday School begins at 10:00AM, and is a wonderful time to grow in understanding God's Word. Currently, we have three Sunday School classes: Nursery (ages 3 and under), Children (ages 4 through 12), and Adult (teenagers and adults together). The Nursery is a open, safe, clean place for babies and toddlers to enjoy coming to church. Children enjoy a unique Sunday School time with lessons designed on their level. Adults and teens have a Bible Study that usually deals with practical areas of our walk with God. Breakfast is provided each Sunday, and the environment is casual. We sit around a large circle of tables and questions & discussion are encouraged. All Sunday School classes are in the Fellowship Hall (which is the center building on the property). |
