Dress at this service can be casual or one’s “Sunday best.” You’ll find our folks do some of both.
-
This service is led musically by our Chancel Choir, who typically invite us into worship with an introit and deepen our worship experience with a thematically appropriate anthem.
-
A Children’s Sermon is an integral part of our worship service. We encourage children to remain in the sanctuary and to participate with the congregation.
-
Attendance at this service skews a little older, but you’ll find a variety of types of people worshipping together, including families, retirees living on Lake Wedowee, and lifelong residents of Wedowee.
-
The service runs approximately one hour.
-
An offering is taken, but we consider your visit to be an offering to God.
-
We’ll greet you warmly, but never put you on the spot to introduce yourself publicly.
-
We have opportunities to take next steps in your spiritual journey, but will never put pressure on you to respond in ways you’re uncomfortable with or not ready for.

Communion is generally celebrated on the first Sunday of the month as well as during a few other special occasions during the year.
