Dress however you feel comfortable. Pastor Steece is often in a suit with a cool bowtie, but others wear dresses, jeans, or even shorts and t-shirts.
So, dress comfortably and come see us!
Sunday school starts at 10 am in the Fellowship Hall and is very casual with doughnuts (usually), coffee, and Bible study.
The lessons can vary from a Book of the Bible to current events, and often times the unusual things in the Bible.
Worship service begins at 11 am and usually ends close to noon.
During the Service, we sing hymns, and the preaching is done verse by verse through the Bible.
Come early or stay later and fellowship with other people in our community.
You! No, seriously...
