About Us

What to Expect When You Visit

Our Sunday mornings start at 8:30 am with Common Ground breakfast. Most weeks we have a wonderful home cooked breakfast that has something for everyone to enjoy served until the start of worship. The few Sundays we do not have a full breakfast we do our best with donuts, coffee, and juice. It’s a great time for fellowship and conversations prior to the start of Sunday School.  
 
Our Sunday School time begins at 9:00 am. We are currently offering two classes, a class for adults and a class for students.  We have a desire to grow and the space to do so. Please do not let our small size keep you from engaging in a meaningful study to help you grow in your faith.
 
When you join us for Worship at 10:30 am, you will find a traditional service which includes the singing of hymns, readings of scripture and the creeds of our faith, along with a message from our Pastor. It’s not what you wear, but what you have in your heart that matters! Come as you are, we have no dress code expectations or requirements. The first Sunday of the month we celebrate Communion. This is the Lord’s table and it is open to all believers.  
 
A nursery is provided throughout our entire Sunday mornings.
 
In addition to our schedule on Sunday mornings we have other times of fellowship and service throughout the month.  Please take a look at our calendar and see when and where you and your family can join us.
