Childrens Worship is available for children 3-6 years old during the 8:30 and 11:00 a.m. services. Pastor Steve will call the children forward for a mini-lesson, and then they will continue on to room 404 (green hallway) for further worship. All children may come forward, but we ask that only those children age 3-6 continue to room 404. Activity sheets are available for those children who remain in the service. For those older youth who are interested in helping with the childrens worship, please let me know in which service you are available to help.

  Traditional Service Information - Date Posted: 07/06/2008
The traditional services are held in the main sanctuary at 8:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. on Sunday morning. These services are dedicated to the praising of the Lord through conventional, "mainstream" approaches that are frequently associated with worship. Included in these services are hymns, a message in music by the Chancel Choir, Bell Choir, or one of the children's choirs, a children's time and a message given by Pastor Steve Hay. Communion is celebrated on the first Sunday of every month.

At the core of worship in our sanctuary is the use of the Bible and the United Methodist Hymnal. Scripture is read; there are several responsive readings, and a prayer followed by the Lord's Prayer. The service is accompanied by both the organ and the piano.

Nursery care with experienced adult workers is also available during all services and the Sunday School hour.
