Congregation
We are a traditional, theologically and socially conservative congregation
Bible Translations
We do not have a specific version of the Bible that we use; however, our pastor preaches and teaches from the KJV
Clothing
We do not have a dress code. Some of our congregation wear jeans and t-shirts, while others wear suits and dresses
Music
Musically, we are considered to be blended: we have a praise band, “Edify”, that plays contemporary Christian music to open the service; we sing traditional hymns accompanied by piano and organ during the service
Giving
We do take a weekly offering; visitors are welcome to participate but are not expected to: the worship service is our gift to God and to you
Visitors
We welcome visitors! Just inside our lobby is a Welcome Center, with information about the church and our activities. Meet a deacon at the Welcome Center after the service to ask any questions you might have
Children
Children are a gift from God, and a welcome part of our worship. They are welcome to stay with their parents during the service. We also offer nursery care, as well as a Children's Worship Service during the last half of the service for children ages K-4th grades
ADA Accessible
Our fellowship hall has ADA accessible entryways and restrooms
