KID’S CHURCH AT THIS LOCATION
As you enter the Lobby you will receive a warm welcome from our greeters of Faith. Our greeters will be happy to assist you in finding new information about Faith for you and your family.
We encourage first-time guests to complete a Connection Card, which give us your contact information to provide you with additional information about Faith or for you to request special prayer. We have a gift for all of our first-time guests.
We have something for the whole family at Faith. Our greeters will assist you finding the appropriate classroom for your child. For more information on these programs, please see our Children’s Ministry page. Please be reassured, all of our volunteers who work with your children are well-trained, screened, and background checked.
Our worship is contemporary. Pastor Rodney’s preaching is relevant, bible based, and enjoyable. Trained prayer teams are available during the worship service to pray with you.

YOUNG ADULTS
WEDNESDAYS 7:00 – 8:30 PM
Being a “young adult” can look very different; maybe you’re in college. Maybe you’re in the workforce. You could be married., single, or engaged. Maybe you have kids. You might live on your own, or with a roommate, in a dorm, or you may still be living with your family. The thing that connects us is JESUS.
