Is a Safe Sanctuary
Our “Power of Two” policy simply states that no child be left alone anywhere in the church or on a church related activity. It is expected that children will be accompanied at all times, preferably by the parent, guardian or responsible party. If an adult (not including a parent or guardian) is left alone with a child, the adult and child should move to the company of others. In addition, any inappropriate behavior on behalf of an adult or child should immediately be reported to the Church Pastor and/or the Director of Education.
At 8:30 a.m. our “Service of Word and Table” is centered around the Lord’s Table and blends all forms of music styles and traditions in participatory worship.
At 11:00 a.m. our “Liturgical Service” is based on the order of Worship found in the United Methodist Book of Worship. It features the pipe organ, choir & liturgy.
