What to Expect
Worship is our act of turning our hearts towards God in praise and prayer. But worship is also
our act of receiving from God. We receive and respond to God calling us to worship him. We
receive the gift of God’s word, the gift of God’s Spirit dwelling in one another in the church
community, and the gift of God’s grace, which gives us the power to put God’s word into
practice in our lives.

In our Sunday morning worship, we praise God with lively music. We celebrate the sacrament
of communion, or the Lord’s Supper. A sacrament is a visible sign of God’s invisible grace that
we receive through faith. Everyone who is trusts in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and is a part
of God’s family are welcome to receive communion. We hear God’s word read and proclaimed
in a sermon. We often include words Christians have been using for centuries in worship, like
the Apostle’s Creed and the Lord’s Prayer. At the end of our worship, we receive a spoken
blessing as we leave the church campus to live out our faith in Jesus Christ in the world as his
followers.

Childcare during the entire worship service is available for kids 0-3 years. Children 4 years
through 5 th grade are welcome to participate in our Kids’ Church service, which begins after our
time of praise and communion and runs for the remainder of the worship service. We believe it
is important for children to be with their families during the beginning of our worship service,
to join the church community in singing to God. And children responding with age-appropriate
faith, are welcome to receive communion with believing parents.
