Worship
Worship & Arts
Our worship services may best be described as Biblically based, modern, engaging, exciting, authentic, and life-changing. We use music, drama, multi-media, worship dance, and other art forms combined to worship the Lord and proclaim His amazing story in our lives.
We have a ‘Come as you are’ attitude, which means no particular dress code. Our worship services are a joyful and relaxed atmosphere. We believe that ‘church’ doesn’t have to be boring, and that it should be an exciting and engaging place to be in worship!

Worship Dance Ministry
By worship dance, we worship through expressive physical movement consisting of dance elements such as folk, ballet, lyrical, modern, hip-hop, and jazz, in addition to triumphal celebration (such as flags, banners, streamers, and candles), dramatic interpretation, and sign language. We use these expressive art forms to express the joy we experience in our Lord and to draw the congregation to share that experience.

Ushers and Greeters assist in the overall enhancement of each worship experience. Greeters will generally greet members and guests as they come through the doors of the church, as well as give important information or direction regarding the church building or ministry activities. Ushers will assist in the worship celebration through seating people, handing out important ministry materials, the worship of the tithes and offerings, and ensuring general building security and comfort during worship or special events.
