4. Question: What is the best way to share information with the staff?

Answer: The best way to ask a question is to write it on the communication tear-off tab of the program on Sundays. This is how we share prayer requests and update address/phone info. You can also use our "Contact Us" page to send an email for a quick response.

5. Question: What's the best way to get information?

Answer: This website is a great way to start. On Sundays we try to take a little time before the service to share some announcements on the video screens. Also, we offer information in our weekly program and weekly enewsletters.

6. Question: Why don't people dress up for church?

Answer: Our church is very focused on people who have never been to church, or people who have had rough experiences with church growing up. We do everything we can to help people feel comfortable. Check out our CORE VALUES  and MISSION STATEMENT to learn more.

7. Question: Why is communion offered every Sunday?

Answer: We do offer communion every Sunday instead of just monthly or quarterly. It just seems to make sense to focus on what Jesus did for us on the cross whenever we gather for worship and not just during special times throughout the year. Our communion service is open to any believer who chooses to participate.
