📍 Address

What to Expect

From the moment you arrive, we want you to feel welcomed and valued. Our volunteer parking team will greet you as soon as you pull in. If it’s your first Sunday, turn on your flashers to be escorted to the VIP parking area, where our VIP team will greet you with a welcome packet and some goodies. Enjoy coffee and donuts in the lobby before finding your seat in the main auditorium. Our service lasts just over an hour and includes uplifting worship, inspiring teaching, and creative elements like dramas and videos, depending on the week.

Service Times: Thursdays at 7:00PM - Sundays at 8:00AM, 9:45AM, and 11:30AM.

What to Wear: Come as you are! Whether you prefer a coat and tie or casual attire, you’ll fit right in. The most important thing is that you're here, not how you’re dressed.

What to Bring: You don’t need to bring anything, but a Bible or notebook might be helpful if you like to take notes during the message.
