Frequently Asked Questions
How long are the services?
Each service will run between 50-60 minutes.
Is there anything for children?

How are the two Christmas Eve services different?
Both services will have the same message, similar songs, and end with a candle lighting.
The 4 p.m. service will be our traditional service in the sanctuary. It will include a choir leading us in worship. Our 6 p.m. service will occur outside in our courtyard and will include more family-friendly elements.

Wear whatever makes you most comfortable. You won’t feel out of place wearing shorts, jeans, a dress, or dress pants.

Our parking areas are grass lots. One area is behind the sanctuary on Union Street, and the other is on W. Jones Avenue.
