What to expect:

"All are welcome. Come as you are."

Our Sunday service is more traditional than some, but don't worry! We believe church is meant to be a place where all are welcome, so we go out of our way to create a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. People dress as they feel comfortable - some dress up and some dress comfortably. Our services last about an hour.

Children

We create a space for children in our worship service; a nursery is also available.
