WORSHIP - We have two worship services in the Sanctuary each Sunday. The first begins at 8:30 a.m. and is a praise style service distinguished by choruses and praise music.

The second service begins at 11:00 a.m. It is a warm, traditional service, which includes hymns, litanies, anthems and historic creeds. The same sermon is offered at both services.

VISITOR RECEPTION WITH THE PASTOR and DOORWAY CLASS - Our Pastors invite you to attend a Visitor Reception immediately after each worship service every Sunday. It will be held in room 110 down the south hall (to the left when exiting the Sanctuary).

This is a relaxed time of questions, answers and informal sharing. Following the early service reception, a 30-minute "Doorway Class" is offered in the same room. (If you attend the 11:00 a.m. service, join us for the Doorway Class at 9:45 a.m.)

This is an opportunity to hear a bit about the vision and ministries of our church. It is also a time to get to know our Pastors and a few of our leaders and members. The content of the Doorway Class is on a four-week rotation and can be joined on any Sunday.

Your children and youth can stay with you in both the reception and Doorway Class or they can attend Sunday School during that time period.

CHILDREN'S MINISTRY DURING WORSHIP - Our nursery and pre-school ministry is called “Shepherd's Fold”. The nursery is provided during Sunday School and both services.

The check-in desk is located outside room 101 in the north hallway lower level (to the right when entering the portico or exiting the Sanctuary).

Also, during each service, children age three through first grade will be invited to join the Pastor on the altar steps for a "Children's Time". (We have noticed that some visiting children come comfortably without their parents, while other children appreciate having a parent or sibling come down with them. Either is fine with us!)

After the Children's Time, our children's ministers will lead the children to Children's Church. If this is your first or second time visiting with us, one parent is asked to slip out as the children exit and register your child.

Children who attend Children's Church and do not stay for Sunday School may be picked up after worship through the check-in desk.

For children who remain in Sunday School after the 8:30 a.m. service, preschoolers will stay in “Shepherd’s Fold”. Kindergarteners and First graders will be escorted to the Sanctuary for “King’s Dominion”. Pick up information will be given at registration.

PRAYER REQUESTS - In the pew pockets and at the Welcome Center, you will find cards on which to write prayer requests and provide pastoral care information. If you wish for these concerns (and joys) to be mentioned in the pastoral prayer during the service, place them in the prayer bowl on the altar in the Sanctuary before (or during) the first song in each worship service.

Other concerns can be placed in the prayer box at the Welcome Center. The prayer teams and our ministry leadership will pray for all the concerns during the week.

ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL - Adult Sunday School Classes begin at 9:45 a.m. The classes are located both downstairs and upstairs. An elevator can be found down the north hallway (to the right when exiting the Sanctuary). We invite you to visit several of our classes as you get to know us. Maps are available at the Welcome Center. Our classes include:

Abbett Class - For couples, singles, widows and widowers. Follows Topical and Biblical studies.

Cornerstone Class - A class consisting primarily of adults with kids age preschool to college, currently doing a book study.

Encouragers Class - Diverse age group of young adults to retired persons, currently using a Bible discussion format.

Friendship Class - All ages, uses circle seating and follows a Methodist study guide.

Partakers Class - Ages 30-70. Uses a format with discussion questions and personal application.

Seekers Class - All ages and stages of life and faith. A small, personal class.

CHILDREN'S SUNDAY SCHOOL – Preschool children will attend Sunday School in “Shepherd’s Fold” downstairs in the north hallway. All children kindergarten through sixth grade gather in the Sanctuary at 9:45 a.m. to begin the children's Sunday School experience.

You will find a Sunday School registration table in the lobby of the Sanctuary. Your child will be registered and invited to be seated with his or her age group for a joy-filled opening. You will be informed of where to pick up your child at 10:45 a.m.

Our children enjoy something we call "rotational Sunday School". The same Bible Story is taught five Sundays in a row through different media in different rooms. After the grand opening, children will go by age groups to their assigned room.

Every age group will have adult "Shepherds" who stay with the group during the five-week rotation. At registration, you will be given the room number for picking up your child after Sunday School.

When your child enters King's Dominion (what we call our Children's Ministry) he or she will experience one of the following:

The Pasture Room - A drama room, with stage and "hillside seating", where children experience the Bible Story through theater.

The Anchor Room - Children learn the Bible Story through games and exercises, which aid memory and application.
The Harvest Room - An arts, crafts and food room which allows for creating or tasting something from the Biblical Story.

The Morning Star Room - Computer stations help kids learn the high-tech way!

The Vineyard Room - A news studio called TVN (True Vine Network) is designed for children to "anchor the news". They "broadcast" the Biblical Story, then watch themselves on TV!

The Great Commission Room - A wall-sized map of the world helps children discover the meaning of sharing the love of Jesus in mission.

YOUTH, COLLEGE and YOUNG ADULT MINISTRY - Youth Sunday School begins at 9:45 a.m. in the room at the far west end of the building past the offices. (See map.) Youth can choose from Bible Education, Faith Application and The Christ-like Life.

Youth Bible Study starts on Wednesday nights at 6:30 p.m. and is divided into two groups (Grades 7 - 8 and Grades 9 - 12). Following Bible Study, Youth Worship is from 7:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.. On Sunday nights, Youth will usually meet from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m. in the Youth building.

This is a time for connecting youth through fellowship, Christ-lessons and worship. Sunday School for post-high school age through age 23 will be held in the Youth Ministry Office and focus on Biblical, Spiritual, and Topical studies.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT OPPORTUNITIES - Wednesday Night Suppers begin at 5:00 p.m. in the Family Life Center.
