Visiting a new church can be intimidating: What should I wear? Will I fit in here? Where do my kids go? Here is a start to answering some of these questions. You are welcome to contact us, with any questions. What if I'm not sure what I believe? How do I get there? We are an "open and affirming church", which means we are committed to welcoming people of every race, language, age gender and gender identity, ethnicity, economic status, mental or physical ability, and sexual orientation into the full life and ministry of the church. All are welcome!
What if I'm not sure what I believe? "No matter who you are or where you are on life's journey you are welcome here!" We are all on a faith journey, at times we may be sure of what we believe and at other times we might be doubting and questioning. Some of us grew up here as "children of the church" going through our Sunday School and youth programs, others of us found our way here from other denominations or from a secular background. So you are not alone in your journey, we are all in this together.
Worship Services- 9am and 11am for most of the year, during the summer from mid June through mid September there is one service at 10am. 9:00am Church Service and Sunday School Children stay in church through the children's message.
Communion is the first Sunday of every month. Senistive to people with food allergies, we offer gluten free wafers in addition to bread. Out of respect of those who cannot drink alcohol, we use grape juice for the blessed cup of Communion. Everyone is welcome.
Worship generally lasts an hour (except on Communion Sunday when it may go about 15 minutes longer). Our Fellowship time is held in-between the services, generally about 10am.
God doesn't care what you wear to church, and neither do we! Dress as casually or formally as you feel comfortable. Most are somewhere in the middle.

We have one entrance and exit to our parking lot. Once you enter the parking lot there is parking on both sides of the church. There is also a lower parking lot to the left of the church. When it is also full, there is parking on the grass to the left of the church, you will see a rope indicating where to park, after the service you can simply drop the rope and drive out.
We have two handicap parking areas, as you enter the parking lot up on the left (by the side doors are two handicap parking spots. (Bear in mind this entrance has around 10 steps to maneuver. If you continue around the building you will see a ramp and just past the ramp is another handicap parking spot.
We offer many age appropriate activities during the 9am worship service. The children participate in the opening of worship until the children's message, when they are dismissed. Generally on communion Sunday (first Sunday of the month) the children stay with their parents through Communion. All are welcome to take part in Communion. It is the parents decision when their child is ready.
