Kids Worship

During Discovery Ridge Worship, children age 3 - 5th grade learn about the

elements of worship including prayer, music, offering, worship, and the sermon.

Children K - 2nd grade meet in Room E-106 before going to Discovery Ridge

Worship. Children 3rd - 5th grade gather in the sanctuary for adult worship and

then exit for Discovery Ridge Worship. Children age 3 - 5 have Discovery Ridge

Worship in the Fellowship Hall at the beginning of adult worship, then return to

their classroom.

Newborns through age 2 are invited to join us in our exciting Sprouts classrooms

located in the Education Building. Visit the Welcome Center for complete details

and location of classrooms. All children should be picked up in the Education

Building after morning worship.

Interpreting for worship services is available. Please schedule other interpreting

services with the church office.

Becoming a Christian

God loves us. Sin separates us from God. Jesus’ death on the cross and

resurrection have paid our debt and re-connects us with God. You become a

Christian when you, by faith, ask for forgiveness for your sins, repent from them,

and receive God’s free gift of salvation. If you have made this decision, we would

love to celebrate it with you during the time of invitation at the end of the

worship service. If you have questions about Christianity please speak with one of

our Welcome Team members or our pastors.

Becoming a Member

Anyone is eligible to become a part of this family of faith regardless of

denominational tradition or faith background. You may join by becoming a

Christian or by your statement that you are a Christian. Simply come forward

during the invitation at the end of a worship service. New members are also

required to attend our Membership Class Journey 101.

Welcome! Thank you for joining us in today’s worship.
