What to Expect
Your Own Parking
A special parking place has been reserved just for you, our guest, near the door. Or if you like, drop off your family at the door under the covered drop–off and then park your car.
A Welcoming Church
You will find friendly faces waiting for you at the door and in our fellowship area ready to greet you upon arrival. We are small enough to know you, and large enough to serve you!
What to Wear
We have a diverse group. Some wear slacks, some jeans, some come in shorts. Casual is probably more our style. Definitely not dressed–up. Whatever your clothing style you will be at home.
Worship
The goal of our worship is to praise and glorify God. We keep our worship simple, Biblical and without all the flash and show. God’s people in the Bible simply worshipped God from the heart–and we strive to do the same.
Singing
Singing is music to the soul. It is high praise to God. While we may not be angelic in sound, our church loves to sing. Regardless of your ability, great or not so much, we welcome you to join us in praising God through song!
Communion
The Bible tells us the first-century church observed communion every Sunday to remember Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection. We continue this practice and invite all Christians to join us.
Prayer
Prayer changes lives and brings peace. Jesus taught and modeled it, and we encourage a strong prayer life, practicing it together as a church.
Contribution
Our members’ generosity keeps our church running and helps those in need. As our guest, your presence is gift enough, but you’re welcome to give if you wish.
Faith-Filled Experiences for All Ages

What should I wear?
We encourage you to come as you are! You’ll see people wearing everything from jeans and t-shirts to dresses and suits.

Come as you feel comfortable, and join us for a time of fellowship and worship!
What do you have for kids?
We love having children as part of our church family! We offer engaging Bible classes for kids of all ages that are designed to help them learn about God in a fun and interactive way. During worship services, we encourage families to worship together, and we have resources available to help keep little ones engaged. Our goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where kids can grow in their faith, build friendships, and experience God’s love. We’re excited to help your children discover how much God cares for them!

Our music is simple, pure, and focused on glorifying God. We sing a cappella, following the example of the early church, with voices blending in worship without the use of instruments. The congregation sings together, creating an atmosphere of unity and reverence. Our hymns and spiritual songs are chosen to praise God, encourage one another, and reflect Biblical truths. Whether you’re familiar with a cappella singing or experiencing it for the first time, it’s a meaningful way to worship and connect with God and His people.
