What should I know about the worship services?

We invite you to worship with us every Sunday at 8:00am or 9:30am. The Holy Eucharist is celebrated at both services, with music and nursery care at the latter. Any baptized Christian is welcome to receive Communion. The service follows the Common Book of Prayer and we sing from a variety of hymnals. Readings and prayers are often printed in the service bulletin that you receive upon entering. Please sign our guest book, located in the narthex (lobby) before you leave. All are welcome to join with the community at Coffee Hour in the parish hall for refreshments and fellowship.

Dress is informal to professional, whatever you feel comfortable in.

Feel free to sit anywhere (except first two rows on the left which the choir uses after Communion).

Where do I park and enter the building for worship? Is it handicapped accessible?

There is ample parking just beyond the building on John Street, in the church parking lot. Enter the church through the main doors located on John Street, under the cross. This entrance is handicapped accessible, as well as the entrance to the church office.

Where are the restrooms?

The restrooms are located on the lower level; Men's room to the left at the bottom of the stairs, Women's room to the right, around the corner and down the hall, first door on the right.

Do you practice Safe Church Policies?

Yes, we practice Safe Church Policies. The aim of this policy is to make our Church a safe place, safe for those who worship, safe for those who minister, safe for those who come in need, safe for children and safe for all who seek or serve Christ. We believe that this policy helps us live out our Baptismal covenant to respect the dignity of every human being.
