FAQs
What are your services like?
Our services last about 75 minutes and are designed to be life-giving, expressive, and encouraging. You’ll experience passionate worship and practical, biblical teaching—all meant to help you grow relationally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually.
What will happen when I visit for the first time?
You’ll be greeted with a warm welcome from our team the moment you arrive. During the service, you’ll hear about our Connect Area, your go-to spot for questions, next steps, and learning more about how to get involved. And we’ll have a gift just for you. We’ve designed the experience with you in mind.
What do I wear?
There’s no dress code, just come in whatever makes you feel comfortable! Whether it’s jeans, sneakers, or your Sunday best, you’re welcome here.
What’s the vibe like?
You’re already family. We’re Jesus people, not religious people, genuine, welcoming, and real. There’s a coffee shop, plenty of great conversation, and no pressure. Hugs? Optional. Acceptance? Always.
What do you offer for middle school & high schoolers?
On Sundays, we invite middle and high schoolers to join the main service with everyone. Then on Wednesday evenings, we host Youth Night—a space designed just for them to connect, grow, and have fun. Visit our YTH page for more info.
Where do I park?
We have plenty of on-site parking. Look for signs and friendly faces to help direct you!
