What to Expect
Worship at Faith Church may be described as “relaxed reverence”. We combine The Book of Common Prayer and The Hymnal 1982. The music is a blend of contemporary Christian songs and traditional hymns. Services are projected on state of the art screens to facilitate worship.
Service Times
Sunday Mornings
10:00 am – A worship service with communion and a blend of contemporary and traditional music.
What to Expect
Dress
Wear what is most comfortable for you. Some people dress casually, others dress more formally.
Parking
We have a large parking lot that provides easy access to doors on both sides of the building. The entrance is off Country Club Drive. Accessibility parking is clearly marked to the right (uphill) side of the building.
Worship Service
When you arrive at the door, a greeter will welcome you. The sanctuary entrance is to the right side of a large rotunda gathering area. There you will find ushers and a welcome table. The ushers will give you information about upcoming events and if needed, get a hearing assistance device for you.
You are invited to sit anywhere in the church and join in our worship. We stand and sit to worship. We do not have kneelers in our worship area.
Communion
We use real bread that has been carefully prepared by a team specially for our services. All of the bread is gluten-free and free of the other Big Eight food allergens so it is safe to eat. View recipe. You are invited to eat the bread and then drink from the cup. We do not offer intinction. If you prefer not to drink from the cup you may simply pass it by.
If you prefer not to take Communion, please come forward and cross your arms over your chest to receive a blessing.
We acknowledge that the tradition of the Church teaches that those who share in Communion are those who have been baptized. And our faith also holds that at the end of all time God will gather us around the heavenly table—through the grace of God all shall be welcome then and therefore all are welcome now.
Children & Youth
Families will find comfortable spaces inside the sanctuary with rocking chairs, pillows and room for toddlers to crawl around. Children and youth are welcome to stay in the service with their parents or join in Sunday School.
Children are welcome to either sit with parents for the whole service, join with other kids for activities in the Sunday School classroom, or make use of the activity tables in the sanctuary. Sunday School kids rejoin their families in time for communion.
Please visit our Children and Youth page for more information. Feel free to contact the church and speak to the Director of Christian Formation before your visit, if desired.
Hospitality
Please join us after the service for coffee and cookies. We would like to get to know you. Greeters, ushers and other members of the parish will say hello and help you find the hospitality area.
