What we believe
As United Methodists, we have an obligation to bear a faithful Christian witness to Jesus Christ, the living reality at the center of the Church’s life and witness. To fulfill this obligation, we reflect critically on our biblical and theological inheritance, striving to express faithfully the witness we make in our own time.

Two considerations are central to this endeavor: the sources from which we derive our theological affirmations and the criteria by which we assess the adequacy of our understanding and witness.

Wesley believed that the living core of the Christian faith was revealed in Scripture, illumined by tradition, vivified in personal experience, and confirmed by reason.

What do you believe about the Bible?
We believe that the Bible is the inerrant Word of God. Sermons are practical and inspirational messages directly from the Bible for people living in today's pressures.

When are your services?
We have Sunday worship at 9:00 am. Please join us for refreshments and social time at 10:00 am.

Will people accept me?
Our church focuses on the future rather than the past. We welcome every person through the door.

What attire should I wear?
We do not have a dress code. You will feel comfortable and accepted regardless of what you choose to wear. Our services have a full spectrum of dress, from jeans to suits and dresses.

How does one join the church?
A person or family may join the church either by transfer from another church or denomination or by profession of faith. The United Methodist Church recognizes the baptism and confirmation of other churches. Membership is open to all who earnestly desire to be disciples of Jesus Christ -- to live in love and service while growing in faith.

All prospective members are invited to attend a New Member Orientation. New Member Orientations are announced in the church bulletin.

The New Member Orientation helps participants better understand our mission and vision for our ministries, as well as our understanding of discipleship and the basis of our traditions. It is also a time to meet and get to know our staff and other new members, as you become more familiar with our church facilities.

If you would like to explore membership, we invite you to attend the next New Member Orientation. You may sign up by contacting the church office.

How can I be baptized?
In a sacrament, God uses common elements - in this case, water - as means or vehicle of divine grace. Baptism is administered by the church as the Body of Christ. It is the act of God through the grace of Jesus Christ and the work of the Holy Spirit. Baptism is arranged by contacting the church office.

What can I expect on my first visit?
From the moment you pull into the parking lot, you'll be made to feel at home. As you enter the building, our greeters will be poised and ready to give directions.

As you enter the sanctuary, our ushers will welcome you and hand you our information-filled worship guide. Then, sit back, relax, and enjoy the service! Our prayer is that you will truly meet with God. Generally, our one hour service goes quickly. From the moment you walk in the door, until the moment you leave, we are committed to a relevant, Biblical, compelling, challenging and life-changing presentation of God's grace and truth.

Where do I take my children when I arrive for worship service?
The nursery is always open to preschool children. During the early service, one of the first things at the start of the worship service is ‘Children’s Moments’, where the children go up front and have a special time with the pastor or other leader. After Children's Moments, the children are dismissed to Sunday School. Please ask for directions from the greeter or usher to find the correct grade and location for you child.


Do I have to be a church member to take Communion?
The United Methodist tradition is an "Open Communion." This means that communion is available to any and all who wish to share in God's grace. Communion is offered the first Sunday of each month.

What is Confirmation?
Confirmation is both a strengthening sign enacted by the church and a profession of faith by the person. It is a response of faith to the gracious covenant into which God baptizes us. So, confirmation preparation aims at leading youth and others to embrace their vocation - the calling of God to live and witness to the reign of God announced in Jesus Christ. Because the middle school years (7th-8th grades) are when young people begin to move from concrete thinking to abstract thinking, that is when most people begin to make lifelong faith decisions. However, not everyone is ready for such a decision at this time in life and a few are ready even before 7th grade. Also, during these middle school years, youth are seeking a sense of belonging. Belonging to the community of faith is an appropriate response to that developmental task.
