When visiting us for the first time, the following information responds to frequently asked questions.

Open parking is directly behind the building. Also, several handicapped spaces are clearly marked.

The main church entrance is on the south side of the building under the portico. Visitors are warmly greeted and welcomed.  Questions are encouraged.

Our church is barrier-free and accommodates the use of most assistive devises including walkers, wheelchairs, crutches and canes. An elevator at the entrance gives access to the Sanctuary on the upper level and to Fellowship Hall on the lower level.  Additionally, the sanctuary is looped for Telecoil assistive hearing devises. 

Children are warmly welcomed and encouraged. Options for attending services as a family with young children: 

  1. Attend the service together in the sanctuary.

  3. Use the JeLY (Jesus Loves You) Room across from the sanctuary which has children’s activities and adult supervision.
