“Attention Church Family” in order to facilitate a more orderly worship experience, while the Preached Word is going forth we will begin seating worshippers entering the sanctuary in reserved seating at rear of the sanctuary. If you are seated in the sanctuary and have to leave once the preaching begins please take your belongings and/or accompany your children as you may be asked to sit in a different location upon your return. This change will help our recording process as well as allow everyone to receive all that God has for them through the spoken Word! We appreciate in advance your support with this change.
