Below are some frequently-asked questions so we can worship together in a meaningful way!

Plan Your Visit Today!

What can I expect when I come in?
Our service is on Sundays at 9:45 AM and is about 60-minutes long.

When you arrive, you will be greeted at our doors by one of our friendly ushers who will welcome you and help you find a good seat. We will also invite you to fill out an “I’m New Here” Card and place it in the offering plate during worship -- that will be all we ask from you your first Sunday with us.
