  • Where do I park?
    We have guest parking in the lot nearest to our administration building. There is limited mobility parking in the lot closest to the sanctuary. We have plenty of parking near the Family Life Center, and on Sundays some people park along Renee Drive.
  • What should I wear?
    Wear what makes you comfortable. Congregants' attire varies from "Sunday best" to shorts and T-shirts and everything in between. As some of us have become accustomed to worshipping in our PJs, our pastor wants to assure you that you can come as you are!
  • What should I bring?
    Bring an open heart! Printed worship guides are available and all responsive words needed are visible on screens in the sanctuary. We have pew Bibles and hymnals available. We also make our worship guides available online for a lower-touch worship experience. We use smart phones to register attendance.
  • Where do I take my kids?
    Children are welcome at all our worship services and we love the sounds they contribute to our worship experience. We offer a nursery for ages 0-4 every Sunday, located in the middle Administration building, and our services' audio can be heard from the Narthex just outside the sanctuary. Children's bulletins and sermon sacks are available from an usher. For the Sunday school hour our ushers or hosts will be happy to help you find the correct classroom.
