Your First Visit

“Come As You Are, Leave As You Want to Be.”

 

We welcome you to visit with us!  Whether you are new to our community or haven’t visited us in a while or maybe just passing through, we hope you’ll come and worship with us.  We love to have visitors and we are known as a “very friendly church”.  Often we ask members why they united with our church, and the most common answer is that we are “welcoming.”  Walk through the church doors and see how many people smile and say hello.

 

 “Give thanks to the Lord for He is good; His love endures forever.”

How do I get connected?

First, begin by accepting our welcome packet and complete the card in the packet to introduce yourself and place the card in the offering plate.  Someone will contact you by mail.  If you would like to receive our weekly message, include your email address. 

 

You will hear about a lot of opportunities to connect from the pulpit on Sunday morning, as well as in the Sunday Bulletin.  Be sure to say hello to Pastor Shirlen in the foyer after the service. 

 

If you have further questions, ask an usher or greeter.  If you decide you want to know more about the church and possibly unite with our fellowship, talk with the Pastor about the membership class we offer. 

 

We need each other in the church.  We are the Body of Christ.  The encouragement of others in the church helps give us the courage to step out in faith.  We invite you to run the race with us.
