What To Expect
A welcome to all who come to worship with us! Our service can be described as mostly traditional in style. A typical service includes hymns and choruses and features choir and praise band. Some people dress up for services; others are casual. A nursery is available for infants and toddlers. School-aged children worship with their parents in the sanctuary, and the service includes a children's sermon.
Visitors are invited to join our fellowship coffee following Sunday services, or our monthly luncheon which substitutes for coffee. We celebrate the Lord’s Supper the first Sunday of each month. All who trust in Jesus Christ are invited to share at His table. Please feel free to pick up a brochure at the door or speak to the pastor or a member for more information.

"Witness to the Light"
John 1:6-8
The Lord's Supper

"True Light"
John 1:9-13
9 The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. 11 He came to his own, and his own people did not receive him. 12 But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, 13 who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God. John 1:9-13

"Seeing the Light"
John 1:14-18
14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. 15 (John bore witness about him, and cried out, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me ranks before me, because he was before me.’”) 16 For from
his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. 17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father’s side, he has made him known. John 1:14-18
