What to Expect in Worship

All of our worship services include music, scripture, prayers, a sermon and Holy Communion. The words and music you need to participate in the service can be found in the worship bulletin you will receive at the beginning of the service or found just below the livestream page for those watching online. They are also projected on the screens in the front of the sanctuary.

During the Children’s Sermon at our services, kids are invited to come forward to the front of the church to sit on the floor for a 3-4 minute special message just for them. Children are welcomed and encouraged to be part of all of our worship services.

During the summer, our worship service reflects music from both the contemporary and traditional traditions. On any given Sunday you might find piano, violin, guitar, drums, flute, organ and more in our worship ensemble. We will sing both traditional hymns and contemporary worship songs.

Our regular schedule has both a Contemporary Worship Service and a Traditional Worship Service. The Contemporary Worship Service is led by our worship ensemble that includes piano, strings, brass, wind instruments, percussion and vocalists. There is a place in this service for every instrument from a triangle to a tuba! The Traditional Worship Service is led by piano, organ and choir.
