Questions and answers
What to expect
Our services last about an hour. We sing hymns and listen to a sermon from Pastor Bruce.

Sit anywhere you like and participate as much or as little as you feel comfortable with. We sing hymns from a variety of styles and origins, ranging from old familiar tunes to recent compositions. Our music is lead by our Chancel Choir and accompanied by our beautiful grand piano and Reuter/Rogers pipe organ. Though we often stand for hymns and responses, we do not use kneeling benches.
Our facility is barrier-free, with wheelchair seating in the front and back of the sanctuary. We use a projection screen but also have regular and large print bulletins, hymnals and Bibles (New Revised Standard Version) for all to use. We have devices to help the hearing impaired — just ask an usher as you enter our sanctuary.
Throughout the year, particularly during Advent, Christmas, Lent and Easter, there are special or multiple services. You’ll find these listed on our Calendar page.
When?
Join us for worship every Sunday at 10 am in person or via livestream!

There is ample parking on the west side of the building. If you’re visiting us on a week day, enter through the far left door under the covered portico. It has a blue handicapped access sticker on it. If you find the doors locked, just push the doorbell-like buzzer in the middle of the four doors. Our office staff will electronically unlock the door for you.

You can view our Worship YouTube Playlist here.
Got kids?
We believe that children belong in worship, because faith is “caught” not “taught.” What better way for children to know what faith is all about than to be a full part of a faith community.
We have worship bags for young children at the back of the sanctuary.
What should I wear?
Most adults wear anything from business casual to Sunday best. Anything your child or youth would wear to school will work here.
Who is welcome?
All people are welcome here.
The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) celebrates the gifts of all gender identities and sexual orientations in the life of the church and affirms the full dignity and humanity of all people.
