Worship begins at 10:00 am in the Sanctuary Building.
Come as you are, jeans, questions, joy, and struggles. Whatever you’re carrying. We’re a community of real people seeking a deeper connection with God. You’re invited to worship with us.


We bring together the heart of traditional worship with the energy of modern praise. Our band brings a vibrant, contemporary sound that gets you engaged, while our choir delivers the kind of harmonies that truly move you. Yes, we clap. Sometimes we sway.
Communion is open to all, no exceptions. Everyone is welcome at the Lord’s Table.
