Our goal is to provide a powerful worship experience every Sunday in order that Jesus may be made known in our community and world.
How should I dress?

For all of our services, we want you to be comfortable and wear what you want. Some enjoy dressing up as they have for years, wearing dresses and suits, while others prefer worshiping in jeans. Much of what people wear is based on what service they attend. So, the bottom line – dress how you would like; we just want you to be there and enjoy your time with God and us.

Is there something for my children?

Yes there is! We have an excellent Children's Ministry program provided for infants through 5th grade. Children will not only be closely cared for, but we also gear teaching and education for each age group that allows not just the parents, but the whole family to grow in their faith together. Because we care for children, it is our goal to be very secure in protecting our children. So we have included a security check-in system for our kids 5th grade and under. To make your first time checking in faster visit us at the Welcome Desk to get set up!
What translation of the Bible do you use?

There are many wonderful translations of the Word of God out there but as a church we consistently use the NLT in our services and classes. While you may hear other translations read, they are typically used alongside the NLT to help give greater understanding to the meaning of the text.
