Question: What should we wear to church?
Answer: We believe that God loves us for who we are the way we are. We do not need to dress up to impress Him. Come in short, jeans, or dress, whatever you prefer. We look the same on Sunday as we do the rest of the week. We are here to worship and learn about God and our attire won’t change how we do that.
Question: Will my children be safe?
Answer: Yes. We do extensive background checks on all of the staff and volunteers prior to allowing them to work with the children. We also have a check in and check out system in place. Each child has a name badge and the parent must have the matching portion of the badge in order to pick up their child.
Question: What if my child is a guest?
Answer: Guests will need to fill out a name sticker for their child that has a number on it. The parents keep their portion with the matching number and will use that to pick up their child at the end of service.
Question: What does my child need to bring?
Answer: All your child needs to bring with him/her is a Bible and a desire to learn about Jesus. We have fun filled Sunday School and Kids' Worship services that are full of learning and hands on activities in which the children participate. This means there is not any need to bring video games or cell phones as this can be disruptive to not only your child learning about Jesus, but those around him/her as well.
