.*approximate times

Sunday morning worship begins with a call to order and welcome in the main sanctuary at 10:25am. 

Our worship team embraces, and our song services reflect all the best of Christian music from the most classic of traditional hymns to the most contemporary of Christian worship. The Holy Spirit has given the Church a rich heritage in music, and we enjoy giving that gift back to Him as worship and praise.

To promote family worship, families remain together during the time of the song service. Children enjoy the music, and observing their parents worshipping builds precious memories and encourages faith.  

Following song service, the children (ages 2 years through 6th grade), are dismissed to Children's Church.  Our Youth Ministries programs are designed to provide enjoyable, Christ-centered, biblically based  instruction for our youngest saints.  This takes place during the time of the ministry of the word. 

Nursery facilities are available for individual use from about 10:00am.  A nursery attendant is available for ministry to our youngest saints (ages 4 months through 2 years) immediately following the song service. 

FIRST SUNDAY WORSHIP:

The first Sunday of each month has been designated as youth focus and young adult ministry Sunday. Worship on the first Sunday is overseen, coordinated and performed by the "First Sunday" worship team - a gifted group of young musicians and vocalists whose love of the Lord shines through in an often unique blend of worship which incorporates both the new and the old songs of the kingdom. This service has proven to be a time of special joy, celebration and worship that focuses upon the Lord and His goodness - through a youthful lense.

MID-WEEK 'BIBLE & LIFE STUDIES':

Wednesday Night has been set-aside for mid-week Bible Study.  Starting at 7:00pm and lasting about one hour, these studies give the saints an opportunity to investigate a broad range of biblical text studies, as well as selected Christian life topics that are applicable to the lives, and vital to the spiritual health of every Christian.  Textual studies and course topics are advertised in the weekly bulletin.  Mid-Week Bible & Life Studies run year-round, with two (2) designated breaks -- 1) two weeks in December (for celebrating the Christmas and New Years holidays), and 2) the months of July and August (to allow for vacations and extended family time).

INTERCESSORY PRAYER GATHERING:

The First Thursday of every month has been set-aside for honoring the Lord through fasting and intercessory prayer.  The day concludes with intercessory prayer in the main sanctuary from 7:00pm until about 8:00pm. This time includes both corporate and individual prayer (as needs arise). Pastor Tom & Helen Sheets oversee this ministry area. All are welcome and encouraged to attend. Visitors are always welcome!  (This is a year-round ministry area.)

SPECIAL SERVICES:

Communion Service:  We celebrate the Lord's Table ("Communion") on the second Sunday of every month during morning worship.  All believers and their children are welcome and invited to participate.

Baptismal Services:  Following instructional classes, baptismal services are held on an "as needed" basis.  Anyone old enough to understand their need for salvation, and what water baptism entails, is eligible for baptism. Anyone interested in being baptized should contact one of our pastors.  (Parental consent and involvement is required for children under the age of 18 years.)

Baby Dedications:  We celebrate the blessing of God's gift of children by dedicating them to the Lord. Dedication services are held on Sunday morning as a part of the morning worship. Please see one of our Pastors for more information.
