What is worship like?

Lutheran worship follows a pattern each week: Gathering, Word, Meal, and Sending. We gather in Christ’s name, taking time to set down the week’s burdens and rest in God’s grace. We hear the Word of God proclaimed in scripture, sermon, and song and lift our prayers to the One who promises to hear us. We share God’s holy meal, Communion, and receive strength for the journey ahead. Then we are blessed and sent back into the world, singing and praising God for all God’s gifts! Everyone is invited and encouraged to participate in worship. As Pastor Rachel says each week at the communion table, “No matter the church of your membership, the form of your baptism, or where you are on your journey with God, a place has been prepared for you at this table - at Christ’s table. So come and eat for all is ready and all are welcome!”

Worshiping with kids?

We love having people of all ages and abilities worshiping together!

There is a family restroom in the Gathering Space and a changing table in the nursery to accommodate your family’s needs.

The nursery is staffed from 10-12 on Sundays. You can drop your youngster off before worship begins or at any time during the service.

Children are invited forward during the Children’s sermon, where they can hear the bible story told in words and context they can understand. Older siblings and other friends are welcome to accompany children if that would make them more comfortable.

Children’s bibles are available in the pews, and ushers can provide children’s bulletins upon request.

Wiggles and noise are welcome! If your child needs more room to move, feel free to take them to the Prayground in the Gathering Space. This area is stocked with quiet activities, coloring pages, and kid-sized furniture. This is also a great spot to enjoy refreshments after the conclusion of the worship service!

Where do I park?

We have plenty of parking space! If the front lot on Milham road is full, drive around behind the building. There are two more lots and a door to the Gathering Space and Sanctuary back there.

What do I wear?

You will see a wide variety of clothing choices from jeans and t-shirts to suits and ties. The sanctuary has heat in the winter and air conditioning in the summer. We want you to be comfortable.

How can I get connected?

You may want to stop by our Welcome Table to learn more about specific ministries or share your contact information with us so one of our leaders can contact you later in the week. You can also fill out the guest information form below and one of our staff members will connect with you.
