LYFE EXPERIENCE IS ON SUMMER HIATUS. CHECK BACK IN AUGUST FOR NEW DEVELOPMENTS.
Interact with your faith at our newest experiment in worship.

Aimed at young adults and open to the young at heart, our new 11:45am worship service uses scripture and a message to inspire interactive faith in community. We do small and large group discussion, have a variety of activities and ritual, explore ways of expressing prayer, and build trust between each other and with God. This isn't a worship service to be an anonymous face in the large crowd; this is a worship service to be a loved person in the community.
Each interactive worship has light food and beverage and you're welcome to eat during the service. We have acoustic music, scripture, and prayer by candlelight. The message is centered in scripture and its relevance today. We focus on global and social justice, outreach, service, and how to live your faith everyday. Messages are delivered by Excelsior UMC staff, laity, and guest preachers and speakers. It is a jumping off point to exploring relevant faith that calls us to action.
Come and see our new experiment in interactive worship. Contact Nate for more information and learn how to get involved.
