come as you are
God meets us where we are, so we adopt the same mindset. Come wearing whatever makes you feel comfortable. Come whether you know what you believe or aren’t sure. Come whether you are hurting or hopeful. Come and be accepted for who you are, as you are.
when and where
Sunday morning worship begins at 10:30am. If you arrive early, you are welcome to enjoy the quiet of the sanctuary for a bit. There is seating both immediately inside the sanctuary doors and across from the communion table.
The church parking lot is located across the street and two houses down toward Market Street.
Every Sunday we celebrate communion. We invite everyone present to join us, trusting the work of the Holy Spirit.
During communion we gather in a circle. Once gathered, an elder of the church will walk around and offer a loaf of bread to everyone. Each person tears off an individual piece of bread from the loaf when it is presented to them. A second elder will then offer wine or juice for everyone to dip their piece of bread in. Finally, the pastor follows the elders and blesses all of the children. He may also bless any adult who requests it or for whom the Spirit moves.

liturgy
We are a liturgical church. In worship, we are guided by a printed liturgy so you are easily able to follow along. Our liturgy includes reading, singing, and prayer. It is anchored by reflecting on Scripture, hearing the sermon, and sharing communion. You will also find art around the sanctuary intended to help shape our worship together.
