We’re glad you’ve found us online and we hope that we’ll see you at Christ Church in person sometime soon.  We know that visiting a new church can be an intimidating experience, and the web is a great way to “ease into” a place before even setting foot in the door.  So let’s try to pave the way for your visit by answering some of the more basic questions. 

 

Where is Christ Church?

We meet at Kids ‘R’ Kids Learning Academy (307 Tew Court, along Business 70, across from Walmart).  Look for our signs Sunday mornings.

 

When are your services?

Worship is at 10:30. 
Sunday School begins at 9:15, and runs an hour.  

 

When I arrive, where do I go?

Enter the main, central, drop-off doors, and you’ll be greeted and welcomed as you enter.  As you head straight back through the welcome area, you’ll find coffee, tea, baked goods, and casual fellowship in the next room.  Keep going toward the back, and you’ll see our Worship area.

 

Where do I take my kids?

We have a secure and well-supplied nursery for children two and under.  About 20 minutes into the service, 3 year-olds to 1st graders are released from the main service to a special Children's Worship service for them.  You’re also welcome to keep your children in the service with you.  We love kids!

 

What should I expect in your worship service?

Our worship service is flooded with the Bible and the good news of Jesus that it contains.  You’ll hear the Bible read and preached so that you might understand better Jesus, the world, and your life.  We’ll also pray, sing, give, confess our faith together (with things like the Apostles’ Creed), and hear the Bible preached.  Two Sundays of each month, we celebrate the Lord’s Supper.  Dress is casual.

 

What about Sunday School?

It meets at 9:15 a.m. and goes an hour.  Afterwards is a casual 15 minutes of fellowship before the worship service.  We put a lot of effort into our Sunday School, both for the adults and the children.  It’s Biblically rich, and worth one’s while to grow in Christ.  

Our pastor usually leads the adult class, and our classes for high schoolers down to three-year-olds are led by vetted, faithful, knowledgeable teachers.

 

Can I stay under the radar, please?

Sure. Rest assured—we won’t single you out.  Just enjoy coming in, getting settled, and being kindly greeted by the people around you.  We want you to feel at home and welcome, but not overwhelmed, identified, nor asked to commit to anything.  It’s your first visit!  We understand that, and want you to have the freedom to experience Christ Church in a relaxed, low-key manner. 

 

We hope we’ll see you here soon . . . 

and that you’ll experience the joy of knowing Christ, that you’ll feel your soul satisfied by His Word and gospel, and feel at home amid a laid-back, friendly people who understand we’re “not all that,” but nevertheless are greatly loved by Jesus.
