are welcome to come as you are. Some people enjoy dressing up for Sunday services - that's just fine. Others enjoy coming in shorts and flip flops - that's great too! As you enter the church, you will be greeted by a host who will provide you with a handout for the worship service and directions to the nursery and classrooms.

During service

Our worship is sacramental. Each week we celebrate the Holy Eucharist, the sacrament given to us by Christ. Our praise and thanksgiving and receiving Christ in Holy Communion is how we experience the sacred. Sacraments are "Outward and visible signs of inward and spiritual grace."
