ABOUT

WHAT TO EXPECT

The main event for us kicks off on Sundays at 9:30 am!

Come a little earlier if you'd like to have time to get settled, chat with the welcome team or grab a coffee before the service starts. We have visitor parking right at the very front to make things simple for newcomers.

We begin with worship, which means singing songs together as a congregation. Don't know the songs? No problem, we'll have the words up on screens in the sanctuary.

 

We are a very expressive church and have dancers, musicians and singers at the front leading us through this portion of the service. Kids stay in the service through worship. If you want to move around and be active, there's space around the church available for that!

When worship comes to a close, kids are released to go to their classes. If this is your first time attending, you'll need to register your children! You can do so ahead of time through the link below.

The second portion of our Sunday service is speaking. Most of the time it's one speaker giving a sermon on a particular topic. At this point in time, it's important not to disturb the speaker or those listening. If you have small children who are too young to go to class, we have a 'cry room' at the back of the sanctuary. It has windows and sound piped in so you aren't missing any portion of the service as well as some toys and a changing table for your little ones.

 

When the speaking is done, the service is essentially over. Frequently we'll stand together and pray in closing. Sometimes one of the leaders will call the prayer team to the front. If this happens and you would like someone to pray for you, you can simply walk to the front of the church and wait for the next available person.


If you have any questions after a service, please talk to a member of our staff or leadership team! (pictured below)

 

Should you be unable to locate one of these people, you can go to the welcome centre and ask for one of the volunteers there to help you find someone.
