What to Expect in Worship
You will be greeted at the front door, then you will enter the Welcome Center. You will probably be greeted again, either by the pastor or an usher. Hang your coat in the coat rack, then get a nametag, available for all, whether this is your first visit or you’ve been here hundreds of times. Coffee and water are on a cart, and you are welcome to take beverages into the worship space.
The usher will give offer you a bulletin packet, which includes a Communication Card, Devotion and special announcements.
Children are invited to participate in the Kid’s Church and Nursery programs during Sunday service. Children aged 5 and under can be checked in at the nursery before the service, and elementary aged children will be dismissed during the service. Someone from the Family Ministries Team will lead the way.
Sunday worship service starts at 10:30am. The service lasts approximately one hour. Usually song lyrics, Scripture readings, and other items are on the overhead screen. Usually Pastor Paul Moore and Music Director Jan Boehm lead worship. The Praise Team leads the congregation in a mix of contemporary and traditional songs. Communion is served the first Sunday of the month. Please be sure to fill out the Communication Card and put it in the offering basket.
After worship everyone is welcome to stay a while, have a cup of coffee, and just visit if you wish. Your presence is appreciated.
