What to Expect

We are a small congregation of about 100 members. We are diverse in age, race, occupation, and come from many different religious backgrounds or none at all. You can expect friendly greetings before and after the worship service with refreshments served after. You will be treated with respect and welcome regardless of who you are.

You will find a reverent and classical approach to worship with traditional worship music accompanied primarily by piano and organ. You will notice that we read from several parts of the Bible each Sunday and our pastor explains and applies the Bible to life and relationship with God as well as our surrounding community and world. We have an excellent small choir which usually sings a short song at the opening of worship.

We value and emphasize responding to God’s grace through gathered worship each Sunday and through learning how better to live as God’s people in all walks of our lives.
