Our prayer is that your time with us will be a blessing, and that you will find the worship uplifting. For families, we have a staffed nursery (ages birth-24 months) located in the back of the foyer. We also offer children’s worship that will be dismissed during our assembly for children ages 2 through Kindergarten. You are welcome to worship with us anytime.
