We are so excited to be able to welcome you back to in-person services. Our services are planned to provide those gathering online and onsite with a meaningful, safe worship experience, regardless of their circumstances.
You will no longer need to reserve a seat. We have set aside seats for those that would like to have a socially distance seat. If you prefer a socially distant seat, please click the button to request seats that are socially distanced.

Do I have to wear a mask?Fully vaccinated people no longer need to wear a mask in the building. We will not be policing individuals or “carding” people to show that they are vaccinated. If you prefer to wear a mask, please feel free to do so. If you have not been vaccinated, we encourage you to follow CDC guidelines and continue to wear a mask. Children and volunteers in the Children’s Ministry area will wear masks regardless of vaccination status.

What do in-person services look like?We currently offer live music and teaching during the 9 and 11 am services. We also offer live Children’s Ministry programming for toddlers through 5th graders during both services. Everyone 3 years old and up is required to wear a mask in the Children’s Ministry area. The doors open 15 minutes before service. No reservations are required unless you want a social distanced seat (click here)

We offer seat reservations for those that want to ensure they are social distanced during seating in the auditorium. Everyone 3 yrs old and up wears a mask in the Children’s Ministry area.
