Frequently Asked Questions
Everyone has questions and below are a few quick answers.
What Can I Expect?
Belonging. Come as your are and you can expect to be welcomed by a community genuinely pleased to see and help you. It's a casual and friendly environment where everyone is welcome, and everyone can belong.
What is the Music Like?
We sing a blend of hymns and contemporary worship songs as we praise God. Every Third Sunday of the month, our Praise Brand takes over the service, playing only modern praise music.
How Often Can I Come?
Come as often as you want! We meet every Sunday and even throughout the week with our small groups and bible studies.

Are My Children Welcome?
YES! Please do! We have a nursery space for little ones and children’s programming that begins at 9 a.m. And then they can stay for the 10 a.m. service which includes a child’s sermon.
