What's the difference between the 9 am & 10:30 am services?At 9 am, the worship service is more traditional and features the organ prominently. At 10:30 am, music is led by a worship praise band. Most of our programming for children and youth takes place during the 10:30 am service time.

I'm bringing my children. Where do we go when we arrive?Our programs for young people happen during the 10:30 AM worship service. There is childcare for infants to preschool age during the 9 AM service. Activities for K-12th grade happen on the second floor. Infant - preschool rooms are on the first floor. Children of any age are always welcome to attend the worship service. An additional room is available with a sofa and toys for young children where you can watch the service by livestream. The first Sunday of every month we celebrate communion, and have the 7th - 12th graders come to worship service. Younger children are invited partway through the first Sunday worship service to receive communion. Every quarter, we have "One Church" Sunday with breakfast for children and adults at 9:30 AM and worship service together at 10:30 AM.

How long does a worship service last?Our services last approximately 1 hour.

Should I stay after the service? Will there be donuts & coffee?Yes! You're invited to stay for some food and conversation after the service. The pastors generally stand at the sanctuary entrance to greet people after the service. Say hello! And grab a donut.
-
Will I be expected to give a donation?We believe that giving is part of following Jesus and belonging to a community, but we don’t expect our guests to give when they come to visit. The greatest gift you can give us is your email! We encourage you to fill out a welcome card when you get here and drop it in the collection when it goes by.

I have a mobility issue. Can I access your building?We have designated handicapped parking in the lot. The pathway from the lot to the worship service is flat, as is the main aisle in the sanctuary. We have an elevator to the second floor. If you have any concerns, please call Colleen, Minister of Congregational Life and Care at 707-328-5465. We would love to help you arrange a visit.

I don't identify as a Christian. Will I be welcome?Absolutely! Everyone is welcome to attend our church. We would love to have you join us, regardless of your faith status. If you are curious about what will happen, you are invited to watch a livestream service to get acquainted with us.
