Service Time - 9:00 a.m.
The entrance to the church is located just off of Main street on either Walpole Street (the front entrance), or Murdick Drive (the back entrance). When you arrive at the entrance, you will find guest parking in the front to your right or left, depending on which side of the building you enter. As you enter the building, the sanctuary will be seen immediately upon entrance either to your right or left. The bathrooms are located down the hallway adjacent to the back entrance.
Points of Interest In the Building
The Sanctuary
As you enter the building, the doors to enter the Sanctuary will be on your right if you use the front entrance or on your left if you enter through the back. The people around the doors are there to provide you with an order of service (bulletin) and assist you in finding a seat if you desire assistance. We do not have assigned seating, so pick any space that is convenient. If you are new to our church and have not been to a Lutheran Church before this visit, you may want to sit about two-thirds of the way from the front of the worship area. That location will enable you to follow the people in front of you during the service. While not an official or unofficial policy of the church, often, the parents with very small children will sit at the back of the church to have quick access to the restrooms. We love that parents demonstrate the priority of faith development in their little children by attending church. For us, the noise of little ones in worship is a beautiful song of praise. As Jesus proclaimed, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these” (Matthew 19:14).
The Restrooms
There are restrooms for both men and women located down the hallway near our welcome and resource table in the narthex (the lobby area outside the sanctuary). The men's and women's restrooms have fully stocked changing stations.
