What to expect on your first Sunday.
What are gatherings like?
We realize that checking out a new church can be an intimidating thing, and we promise to not embarrass or single you out as new comers. We encourage you to come as you are, dressed in whatever is comfortable for you. Our services are about an hour and fifteen minutes and consist of worship through music, prayer, and a message from the Bible. Our music is led by a live band and includes new songs as well as modern arrangements of old songs. Our normal method of preaching is what is called expository, which simply means that we preach through entire books of the Bible, verse by verse.
When you arrive…
…we’ll have coffee and snacks ready for you! Our gatherings start at 10:00AM, but feel free to come a couple minutes early to grab a coffee. Stop by the welcome desk for help and directions on grabbing a coffee, dropping your kids off in the nursery, and finding a seat for the gathering.
What about children?
Children are welcome in our gathering and can certainly stay with your family, but if desired, a nursery is available for kids birth-5 years. Our k-5th grade students join with the adults in worship through song and are dismissed during the sermon for a separate children’s lesson.We value your children and want to provide them with a safe and secure environment so they can learn about Jesus. Screened and trained staff and volunteers will care for your children.
Next Steps
Because connecting at a new church can feel overwhelming, here are the basics of what it looks like to know the church and become known at FBC.
Growth Communities
Growth Communities are groups that meet at FBC or in homes throughout the week to do life together, and are particularly committed to the core functions of discipleship, care, and mission.
Serving Opportunities
Find the ways that you can help make a difference. Serving teams are meant to edify the church, bless other people, and care for the community we live in.
Prayer Rquests
We want to be a church connected and caring for one another through prayer. Let us know how we can pray and care for you.
Go.
Gather.
Grow.
What is the mission of the church?
We are empowered by God; commissioned by Jesus; caring for others and proclaiming Him to the ends of the earth.
