FAQ
Why now?
Each September, our church experiences growth. As it stands, our GKids ministry is at capacity and parking remains a challenge to find on Sundays. Through these practical needs, we sense that God is calling our church into a new season of ministry.
Is the church growing?
Yes! God continues to be faithfully bring people to our doors and we are eager to share the gospel, serve, disciple, and care for them well. This shift to three services aims to better embrace newcomers and steward the limitations of our space.
What are the service times?
8:00, 9:30, and 11:15 AM
Will each worship service be identical?
Yes! Our Sunday morning gatherings will be the same format across all three services. GKids will temporarily employ a modified format (combined classrooms) at the lightest-attended GKids service as the volunteer base grows.
Which service should I go to?
The first service, 8 AM, is likely to be the least attended gathering. If you are a member, we encourage you to attend this earlier service! Newcomers are more likely to choose 9:30 and 11:15 AM.
What will the parking be like?
Check out the parking map of available lots here. Our parking volunteers, stationed at each lot, are equipped to help direct you.
Won’t it be harder to get connected?
Is this permanent?
Are we still committed to sending?
What about a second location?
How can I help?
We appreciate your grace as we transition to these new service times! We know it might take some getting used to and appreciate your patience and understanding as these changes go underway.
Pray! We trust that the Lord is leading us into this new season by His power and will sustain us by His grace. Pray for those who may enter through our doors this fall, that they would embrace the gospel. Pray for our volunteer teams who serve faithfully. Pray for a second location.
Volunteer! If you haven’t plugged into serving yet, this is a great time to join a team. We are in particular need of parking volunteers and GKids teachers, and our worship team is planning an audition day soon. There are also lots of ways to serve the church outside of Sunday mornings. Fill out the Volunteer Interest Form or Worship & A/V Volunteer Interest Form to get started!
Find intentional ways to welcome others! Can you seek out new faces? Start a group? Stay a little longer after service? Invite someone for dinner? Consider attending the 8 AM service? This season provides us with an opportunity to preach the gospel in every sphere of our lives.
