Worship
During the summer time (Father's Day through Labor Day) we have one service at 9:30a, with nursery and Children's church continuing to be offered.
We have two morning services the Sunday after Labor Day through the Sunday before Father's Day. The 8:30a service is generally a less populated service, with an average attendance of 60. The 11a service is more robust, with regularly at least 150 or so in attendance. During the second service we offer nursery and childcare through age 3, and pagers are available for parents wishing to leave their children with our staff. Additionally, we have Children's Church for ages 4 through 2nd grade, which meets during the second service sermon time.
Both services include a blend of contemporary choruses and traditional hymns, and expository preaching from the Word of God. Our worship team is comprised of a guitar, a bass, several vocalists, keyboards, and drums, with occasional violin, cello, banjo, and organ, to name a few. We enjoy the "oldies but goodies," as well as newer music by Casting Crowns, Chris Tomlin, Michael W. Smith, and others. Our hymns are both traditional and contemporary.
Currently Pastor Brad is working through his summer sermon series. He plans to cover Spiritual Life, Spiritual Disciplines, and Spiritual Gifts.
