PLAN YOUR VISIT

WE LOOK FORWARD TO MEETING YOU

WE ARE A COMMUNITY PASSIONATE ABOUT SERVING AND CELEBRATING LIFE IN JESUS CHRIST. 

We believe that a congregation is part of a wider communion of believers who profess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. God calls us to be more than the sum of all our parts. By the power of the Holy Spirit we are given the high challenge of demonstrating the living body of Christ for the world today. We work for Christian unity and we grow in love with one another. We believe that a church is called to inspire by word and deed through its common life and the life of its members.

CHRISTIAN EDUCATION

CHILDREN

Children learn how Bible stories still speak to us today, find ways they can follow the examples of Jesus' love and justice, and build relationships with God and one another. 

 

Explore more about our Sunday School and fellowship opportunities designed especially for kids.

YOUTH

Youth engage and examine what it means to be a Christian in this day and age, what the Bible says and doesn't say, and how to find their own path as followers of Christ. Time to eat, play, and serve are always part of the balance of being in community together.

ADULTS

Growing in faith is a lifelong process, evolving as we experience more life, as we face more challenges, as we see more evidence of God's mercy, grace, and love. We offer a variety of ways to live and grow in faithful community with one another. Explore all of our Adult programs

Next Steps: Becoming a Member

If you've been visiting us and are interested in taking the next step and becoming a member, we invite you to attend one of our quarterly Inquirers Classes, which are led by our pastors and staff. You'll get to know other prospective new members, find out how you can get more involved, and learn what is distinctive about our Reformed heritage and our church governance.

 

Our Inquirers Classes are designed for those who are seriously considering joining the church as active members, those who need a refresher course, and those who are searching and discovering God's leading in their lives. If at the end of the inquiring process you want to become an active member, there are simply two requirements-professing Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and baptism. We recognize all Christian baptisms. However, if you haven't been baptized, a baptism date will be scheduled during a Sunday morning worship service.

OUR MISSION


We joyfully embrace the transformative love of Christ, fostering connections that transcend barriers.
We are a community of hope and discipleship that strives to celebrate and empower every person to flourish in the light of God's love.
