Get Directions↗

When you arrive

A simple, unhurried welcome.

Come as you are

Some people dress casually and others dress up. You will fit in either way.

You will not be singled out

Guests will not be required to stand or identify themselves publicly.

Giving is not expected

Giving is part of worship for our church family, but it is not expected from guests.

Communion

Communion is observed on the first Sunday of each month.

Find the entrance

The main Worship Center entrance is in the center of the building under the canopy. A greeter will welcome you, and first-time guests may receive a welcome bag and visitor card.

Bringing children

Children begin with their families.

Children ages three through fifth grade begin the worship gathering with their families and are dismissed to their classes after the children’s message. Families check in at the children’s check-in area in the lobby. The nursery is not currently staffed, but parents or guardians may use the room with infants and toddlers.

For parents and caregivers

Your kids are safe with us.

We want your first Sunday to feel clear and reassuring from the moment you arrive.

Check-in and pickup

Begin at the children’s check-in area in the lobby. A ministry team member will explain the classroom and pickup process before your child participates.

Prepared volunteers

Children’s ministry volunteers receive screening, training, supervision, and safeguards appropriate to their responsibilities.

Allergies and parent contact

Tell the check-in team about allergies or other care needs. We will also explain how a parent or guardian will be contacted during the gathering if needed.
