We’d love for you to join us for worship! Our service lasts just over an hour and includes a time of worship, prayer, a few brief announcements, and an inspiring 30-minute message.

At the end of the service, you’re invited to come forward to pray (on your own or with a pastor), take your next step in faith, learn more about following Jesus, ask about baptism, or even join our church family. We can’t wait to worship with you!
