Our Worship Services

Our morning and evening worship services are designed to bring you in touch with God's love and power and to help you to face the week ahead. You will experience uplifting music, a message that relates the Bible to your life, worship and praise, and a warm and friendly atmosphere. Nursery care is provided.

Frequently Asked Questions about Our Worship Services

There are two worship opportunities each Sunday. Our morning worship service is at 9:30 AM from June through August. Our morning worship service is at 10:30 AM and 6:30 PM Labor Day through Memorial Day.

Our evening worship service is at 6:30 PM.

What will happen the minute I walk in the church door?

You will enter a lobby.  Directly in front of you, beyond the lobby, is the church worship area.  Probably some people will be milling around in the lobby, talking.  Some children may be active in the area.  Someone will introduce himself/herself to you and shake your hand.  As you walk forward, an usher will ask you where you'd like to sit and offer you a bulletin (a program describing the worship service).  You may enter the church without an usher accompanying you if you'd like. 

Where should I sit in church?

Ushers can assist you in seating, but you may sit wherever you please.

How will I know what's going on?

We provide a worship bulletin (a program) that outlines the worship service.  The pastor will give instructions for everyone during the service.  No one is expected to know "the next thing to do" nor to know the songs "by heart."  It is all explained in the worship bulletin.  You will be able to follow the service with ease. See this week's worship bulletin.

If I come to a worship service, will I be asked to stand and identify myself? 

No! We welcome our guests informally, but do not wish to embarrass them.

Do I have to give a contribution?

No.  The offering is an opportunity for our regular worshipers to share in the work of this church.

What about my children?

Loving care for children up to 2 years of age is available during each worship service and during the Sunday School hour in the nursery, which is located in education wing of the church.  Older children may sit with their parents.  If you prefer, you may keep younger children with you during the service, too.

Children ages 2 through kindergarten worship God in their own special way and learn about God through the many stories in the Bible. The children are excused during the morning worship service. 

How should I dress?

We dress according to our own individual styles and tastes.   Many women wear dresses and a few men wear a tie.  We are generally a casual group, though, and many men wear jeans while many women wear slacks.  Teens usually dress more informally.  It is unimportant to us how you dress.  We are not a "stuffy" group.

What are the worship styles at Faith Community Fellowship?

Our worship services feature meaningful and celebrative worship with a blend of contemporary and traditional music and worship styles which the whole family can enjoy.

Do you offer Sunday School?

Yes! Education classes for all ages meet at 9:30 from Labor Day through Memorial Day.
