What should I wear?
You’ll find a variety of attire at our church. Some people dress in suits, ties, and dresses, while others wear more casual clothing. We want you to come as you are and feel welcome.
What kind of music can I expect?
We are a conservative church that enjoys a blend of traditional hymns and Christ-honoring modern hymns.
What is the preaching like?
Our preaching is centered on God’s Word and the gospel of Jesus Christ. Services typically last between one hour and one hour and fifteen minutes.
Is there a nursery/mother's room?
Yes! While babies and children are always welcome in our main service, we provide a nursery for mothers of infants and toddlers if the children get fussy. Mothers are welcome to use the nursery and watch the service on a live video feed if they choose.
Do you have children’s services?
Yes. During the morning worship service we offer:
Primary Church for children ages 3–5
Junior Church for children ages 6–12
Will I be expected to give money?
No. While we do receive an offering during the service, our guests are not expected to participate. Your presence is the greatest gift to us.
Will I be asked to stand up or introduce myself?
No. We want you to feel genuinely welcomed, not singled out. You are welcome to participate at your own comfort level.
What Bible translation do you use?
We use the King James Version (KJV) in our preaching and classes. While many of our members also read other faithful Bible translations during personal study, the KJV is the translation used in our services.
Do you have a Spanish ministry?
Yes! We have a Spanish-language church that meets at the same time as our English service each Sunday.
Where can I park?
Parking is available in the lot directly in front of the church. We also have designated visitor parking available.
How can I get connected after my first visit?
If you’d like to learn more about our church, you may fill out a visitor card during the service. During the following week, someone from our church will contact you to thank you for visiting and answer any questions you may have. If you would like, we would also be happy to arrange a visit with the pastor or another church leader.
