When visiting for the first time you should expect to be greeted by friendly faces and welcoming hearts. We have guest parking near the front of the church as you turn in from S. Alston Ave. Feel free to make your way up the stairs or the ramp to the front doors. As you walk in you should notice a generational and ethnic diversity. You will see some people wearing shorts and t-shirts while others may have a suit and tie on.

Pastor John often wears a tie (no suit jacket) and sometimes you may catch him with one of his favorite bow ties. Pick an available seat down on the main level or in the balcony. Don't worry about the blankets on the backs of the pews, those aren't saving seats for anyone, they are there in case you get chilly. If you happen to need it, there are restrooms down the stairs by the front door. You will notice there is a connection card on the back of the pew for you to fill out. This information stays in house and allows us to have a record of your visit as well as the ability to follow up with you.

Pastor John will welcome everyone into worship and give some brief announcements if needed. We will begin with worshipping through scripture reading, prayer, singing, and giving. Our music director and choir lead a blended style of worship currently accompanied by piano and organ. Occasionally you may here one of our men on the trumpet. Pastor John is an expository preacher, typically preaching through whole books of the Bible or the occasional topical series. We will conclude our worship with a final song to allow us to reflect on the message, respond to however the Lord is leading, and a final benediction by Pastor John.
