Students are encouraged to sit with family or friends during 10 am worship. 

Wednesday Evenings
6:00-6:30 Gathering time
  • During this 30 minutes we will gather with snacks and on the 1st Wednesday of each month have a meal together. This is a casual time to spend with your church friends. 
6:30-7:30 Activity time  
  • Activity of the evening will begin promptly at 6:30 pm. To begin our time will start as a large group, but for most of the hour we will separate into Middle School and High School groups for age appropriate conversation.
