Worship
Services

Thursdays:
PAUSE Worship Gathering - Begins at 6:30 pm each Thursday evening in the Chapel. Worship is designed to be fluid and flexible allowing attendees to participate as personal schedules allow and hearts desire. It includes quite meditative periods mixed with music, singing, prayer, and word. Worship flows into the Courtyard and surrounding rooms for further participation through prayer, service, study and fellowship. Come and PAUSE during your week.
Sundays:
We worship together on Sunday mornings in the Sanctuary at 10:00 am. Our worship invites you into the presence of the living God with focus on the Word of God and sermons relevant to your life in today's world. The service
is designed for people in all stages of life and families and includes a Children's
Message. Various choirs, soloists and groups provide the music.
A traditional United Methodist worship service includes "call
and response" readings, hymns from our United Methodist Hymnal,
prayers read out loud by the entire congregation, a sermon from
one of our ministers, organ music and anthems.
Holy Communion is celebrated on the first Sunday of each
month and is open to all who wish to share in God’s grace.
Coffee Hour - a time of fellowship and refreshments - is offered
after the service in the social hall and/or courtyard and is a great time to meet
people. Child care and Sunday School is available in the Education
Building for infants through children in 5th grade. We have a Safe
Sanctuaries Policy to help make our church campus a holy place of
safety.
