What to expect when you visit

As our honored guest you will be greeted warmly. Our congregation is a diverse group of many ages, races, and backgrounds. The gospel is for all, and we are all one in Christ.

We promise not to embarrass or intrude on you in any way. You can be assured you will be treated with courtesy and kindness.

Our worship is designed to be a period of reverent praise and devotion to God. You will not be confused by many people speaking at the same time. Good order will prevail at every worship service, as one of the brethren leads the congregation (1 Corinthians 14:33, 40). You will be able to reverently express your devotion to God and consider what is taught.

We seek to follow the simple pattern of assembled worship found in the New Testament. We limit our collective activities to those actions for which we can establish clear Biblical authority (1 Corinthians 4:6).

These are the things you will find us doing in our worship assemblies:

Communion: On every Sunday we assemble to observe the Lord’s Supper. (1 Corinthians 11:23-26, Acts 20:7)

Collection for the saints: In our Sunday assembly, our members will give as they have been prospered to meet the needs of the church in teaching and benevolence.  There is no special pressure put on our visitors to participate unless they choose to do so. (1 Corinthians 16:1,2)

Prayer: At every assembly, we will express our thanksgiving to God and ask for His blessings. (1 Timothy 2:8, Acts 2:42; 1 Thessalonians 5:17)

Singing: You will find us joining together in enthusiastic congregational singing. We sing to praise God and exhort one another, not for entertainment. (Ephesians 5:19)

Preaching and teaching: Accurate and relevant Bible teaching is an important element of our assemblies. We believe that we should have Scriptural authority for everything that we do as Christians and as a church. The Bible is the inspired Word of God, and it is what we use to determine our practices and beliefs. (Titus 2:1-2; 2 Timothy 4:2-5)

Feel free to ask questions on what you see - or on any other Bible subject.

There is no need to feel uncomfortable about what to wear. Wear what you have, or what you think is appropriate. We are ordinary people.

Children are always welcome in our assemblies. We have a quiet room available where you can care for your child should they need to leave the assembly. This room has a changing table and rocking chairs - as well as an audio speaker.

If you need assistance with a personal or spiritual matter, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

The best advice that we can give you is to “Come and see.” (John 1:46). Be our guest for a few weeks – observe, ask questions, get acquainted and prayerfully consider the things that you hear. Please be our guest!
