What can you expect on a Sunday morning?

You can expect a casual atmosphere, a free cup of coffee or tea, and a bustling lobby full of people of every age and stage of life. During our services, we have modern music, a teaching from the bible, communion, and a chance to receive prayer if you’d like. If you have kids, we have children’s programming available for kids 6 months - 4th grade.

A band performs on stage in front of a crowd. Lyrics are projected on a screen.
