What to Expect on Sundays

You Belong. Join Us.

Whether we are worshipping inside, outside, or virtually, you can expect a warm greeting and expressions of extraordinary hospitality. Our high holy days include Pentecost, the four Sundays of Advent, Christmas Eve, Maundy Thursday, and Easter. For each of these worshipful experiences, our music programs offer hymns and songs relevant to each season. The Chancel Choir is open and affirming and everyone is welcome to join. Worship with us in your most comfortable attire.

Holy Communion & Baptism 

Our Communion table is open to all people, all children, and anyone who wishes to know the presence of Christ and to share in the community of God’s people.  Once a month, typically on the first Sunday of the month, we share a simple meal served in the pews, in the round, or by intinction.   We offer gluten-free bread and grape juice. If you are joining our web-streamed Communion services, we encourage you to prepare your own Communion elements in your home. 

Baptisms are equally open to all people and are offered by request. All ages are welcome to be baptized.

Child Care

We offer a nursery with 2 staff members for children through age 3.  Infants and children are always welcome to remain in the Sanctuary during the service.  (currently we are not offering child care) 

 

Kids' Corner Worship Activities

A “Kid’s Corner” is located in the narthex.  Kids are invited to take an activity to engage them during worship.  Please remember to return the activity to the shelf after worship.  Parents who do not wish to take their child to the Playroom are also welcome to sit with kids at the Kids’ Corner during worship, if needed.

Spiritual Art

 Our kids will hear a bible message and then are welcome to go to the spiritual art space to experience the Holy Spirit through art and science projects. 

Youth Troupe

Youth Troupe is a performing arts program for youth in grades K - 12.  Youth Troupe meets on Sundays after worship in the sanctuary.  Projects including theater, dance and music are rehearsed for performance during worship several times per year.  Youth in grades K – 6 meet on the 2nd and 3rd Sundays of the month.  Youth in grades 7 – 12 meet on the 1st and 4th Sundays of the month. 

Youth are encouraged to participate in the development process of projects, writing their own “skits”, selecting and arranging music, choreographing dances, and bringing their visions for performance. Youth of all skill levels are invited to participate - no experience is necessary!
