About Our Worship Services

• Kids are always welcomed. We don't mind if kids make noise- the adults make noise too! Activity bags are available, please ask an usher.
• No coat and tie required.
• We “share the peace” with one another at the beginning. Simply say “peace be with you” or “good morning” to those around you.
• You'll get an easy to follow order of worship which is printed especially for each Sunday. Our services are not just about the preacher talking- but the congregation is very active in speaking and singing. All the bold text is for the congregation to say together.
• We have an easy to follow hymnal with new and old favorites. Sing as loud (or softly) as you want.

• You'll hear three readings from Scripture- one from the Old Testament and two from the New Testament.
• A brief children's message for “little children” is given on non-Communion services. Parents are welcomed to go up with their children, if desired.
• You'll hear a sermon usually lasting 10-20 minutes. The sermons are based on one of the Scripture readings.
• You'll see an attendance card, please fill out with as much info as you want.
• An offering plate- place the attendance card in it and pass it to the next person. Both visitors and members give to the church as they are moved to do so.
• The Lord's Supper is given to members who have undergone Christian baptism and have been confirmed in a Lutheran Church Missouri Synod congregation. If you are interested in membership please indicate so on the Attendance Card and talk with a pastor or usher about membership classes leading to confirmation.
• You'll hear some announcements at the end of the service. Visitors are never publicly “spotlighted”.
• Please join us for coffee, juice, and a snack after service. Ask for a tour! Ask about Sunday School.
• We have many bible studies and interest groups that meet regularly- all are welcome to attend.
• If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask! May the Lord bless you and your time with us.
