We meet in our historic building at 41861 Acacia Avenue right off of Acacia and Stanford. We have a big pride flag on the side of our building that says "A Just World for All." You can't miss it.
We have four parking lots available..
There is a lot to the left of the church in the VIP Tots parking lot, one little lot directly to the left of the church for handicap parking, and one to the right of the church in the dirt lot. The parking lot directly across the street is available as well. Each parking lot will have a sign placed next to it so you know where to turn. Not to mention, there is also plenty of street parking.
We are a super casual church, so wear whatever you'd like!
We have a kid's ministry on Sundays that currently hosts Kindergarten through 5th grade, but our Christmas Eve service will be a full family event where kids join their families in service.
Our Christmas service is a little less than an hour long, and is designed to be a time to reflect on themes of love and redemption. The service will conclude with our candlelighting to symbolize how we can be lights to the world.
When service begins, you will hear chimes play. There will be a brief time of announcements followed by an opening prayer and a moment of meditation. Then we have a hymn followed by a Scripture reading and a 15-20 minute sermon. After the sermon, there is another hymn followed by the candlelighting to symbolize how we can be a light when things seem dark. After the candlelighting is one final hymn and a final positive affirmation, or benediction, from the Pastor. Then after service everyone is welcome to either head out or join us in our fellowship hall for some lights snacks.
