Our church community is warm and welcoming, and we hope you will feel right at home. If you have any questions or need assistance planning your visit or next steps, please contact our office or email Renata, our connections coordinator.

Here are some things you may want to know to feel more comfortable on your first visit!
- We have reserved guest parking spots at the front of the church across from the fountain.
- You can dress casually or you can dress up… it is your choice! People tend to dress up a little more for our traditional service and more casually for our contemporary service. You'll be comfortable at either service in jeans or shorts and also in business casual attire!
- We will not single you out by asking you to stand or wear a name tag.
- As our guest we do not expect you to give to the offering.
