PLAN YOUR VISIT
what to expect.
No matter what your past has been or where you are in life, we believe everyone has a powerful story. We don't have a dress code—so wear whatever makes you feel most comfortable.
When you arrive, you'll find our greeting team at the entrance. Once inside, you'll see where you need to go. We have lots of coffee, so feel free to pour yourself a cup on your way into the sanctuary.
Service starts at 10:30a and last a little over an hour. There is a time of music, a relevant message, and other elements which help us encounter the love of God. We have Bibles available underneath our chairs, so please take and use as you need—and you can even take it home with you.
Have any questions at any point? Anyone wearing a blue Fellowship polo is available to help.
