About the Worship Services

Traditional Worship Service

Sundays, 8:30 a.m. & 11:00 a.m. in the Sanctuary
Our traditional services at 8:30 and 11:00 a.m. are similar, except that the full choir sings at 11:00. The 8:30 service is held outdoors in the north courtyard, weather permitting, June through August.

 
Contemporary Worship Service

Sundays, 9:45 a.m. in the WROC
The Bridge service features contemporary music and an informal setting in the WROC gymnasium.

 
What to Wear

Our congregation dresses in ways that make them feel comfortable. The contemporary service (9:45) is more casual than traditional worship (8:30 & 11:00). The contemporary service varies from shorts and flip flops to business casual. Traditional worship attendees typically dress business casual. You are welcome here no matter your attire!

 
Communion

We celebrate the Sacrament of Communion on the first Sunday of every month. Anyone who claims Jesus as Lord and Savior is welcome to receive the elements. At the 8:30 and 9:45 services, communion is served intinction style. Servers will stand at the front of the worship space in pairs, each holding a communion element. At the pastor’s invitation, the congregation is invited forward to take a piece of the bread of heaven and dip it in to the cup of salvation. At the 11:00 service, servers pass trays of bread and cup through the pews. The cup of salvation is filled with grape juice. Gluten-free bread is placed in white paper cups on the plates at every service.

 
Coffee

Let us make your Sunday morning coffee! Snack and coffee stations are available for all services. For worship in the Sanctuary (8:30 & 11:00), enter through the north entry using Door 10. The Bridge (9:45) service has a table with coffee, lemonade, and treats along the back wall next to the AV cart.

 
For Children

Children are always welcome to be a part of all of our worship services. We do have a vibrant Children’s Ministry – view more information about all of our program offerings, including information about Sunday school and The Wiggle Room here.
