Who hasn't been a little apprehensive walking into a new church for the first time? That fear can be made worse when you don't know what to expect. That's why we've created this page to answer a few of those questions rolling around in your head.

What to Expect When You Arrive
Someone will greet you at the door with a handshake and a howdy (or something like that).

I'm here...now what?
Help yourself to coffee and doughnuts if you'd like. All seats are general admission, so sit anywhere you'd like.

What is the service like?
The first half of the service begins with music. The music is lively and contemporary. During the second half of the service, the pastor will speak. His messages are relevant and easy to understand.

Do I have to get up early?
That depends on your definition of "early". If you're used to getting to work between 7 and 9, then 10:00 really isn't too bad.

Will I have to give any money?
There is no cover charge and we don't expect a dime from you. You are our guest. The only thing we ask is for you to fill out a card that lets us have a record of your visit. We won't sell your address to any marketers or send you any spam.

Do I have to dress up?
In a word...nope. On a typical Sunday morning you may see people dressed in everything from shorts and sandals to suits and dresses. Most people wear jeans or slacks.

Will I have to stand up in front of people?
From your question I'm guessing that you may have had to stand up in front of a group before and introduce yourself. Relax, we won't put you on the spot like that. We'll introduce ourselves to you.

Do I have to leave my kids with a stranger?
We have a great team of people that work with the children providing them with a fun and educational experience. However, we understand that you may be hesitant to leave your children the first time you visit. Your children are welcome in our Sunday morning meetings until you feel comfortable leaving them in the childcare program.
