Worship Service is held in the Sanctuary every Sunday morning at 10:30 am.  The service lasts approximately one hour.  You’ll find the content of our worship service to be traditional, but our style to be casual and upbeat -- we welcome participation!  We enjoy powerful music through our enthusiastic singing and our one of a kind Niemann organ.

We include children of all ages in our worship service. We have a child-friendly space where you can care for your child during worship, with books and play things available in multi-colored boxes.

Coffee, refreshments, and fellowship always follow the worship service in the adjacent church hall, called the Nelker Building.

YOU are invited to join us anytime!
