We’re a pretty traditional church. We’ve got pews and an organ. We have stained glass that is not real old and our pastors wear robes sometimes (we will not comment on the pastors age).

 

We practice two sacraments, Communion and Baptism.  We sing hymns, some a few hundred years old.  These things help us remember where we’ve been.  They remind us of the faithfulness of God, who has reliably been showing up when we come together, through word and sacrament for a really long time.

 

But we’re not stuffy.  There’s an openness and creativity to what we do.  We deeply desire to help one another encounter the living God, who speaks into our lives now, not just then.  We have fun and celebrate beauty.  We welcome everyone, especially kids.  We learn how to be God’s people together through song and prayer, and through sermons that help us see we are a part of God’s story, now and forever.

​

What to wear.

People wear all kinds of things to church.  Some folks wear suits or dresses and that’s fine. Other people wear jeans and that’s fine too. People even wear shorts or jerseys on game days. We love to see kids with soccer jerseys stopping in for worship prior to their soccer league games.

 

Come as you are.

“Come into this place. Come in with all of your vulnerabilities and strengths, fears and anxieties, love and hopes. Come into this place where we can touch and be touched, heal and be healed, forgive and be forgiven. Come into this place, together we make it a holy place.” Rebecca Edmiston-Lange
