Join us in person or on livestream at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKv3ogN3GZcUD5aIqOkVN8g to hear in the Old Testament,

in the book of Isaiah, Isaiah admits that he and God's people are sinners, yet he asks the Lord to come down and act on behalf of the

believers. In the New Testament, in the gospel of Mark, Jesus tells us to watch and be ready because we don't know when he will

come back on the Last Day. Also in the New Testament, in the apostle Paul's first letter to the Corinthians, he encourages them and

us to be firm and patient as we wait for the Lord.

Worship folders are available on the church door.

WELCOME TO KING OF KINGS

We are so very glad to have you visit our website today. Take a look around and let us know if you have any questions at all. If you have questions like the ones below, our site will answer all of those.

What should I wear to church?

Come as you are. There is no dress code. Some people wear suits or dresses. Others wear casual clothes. You will not stand out if you dress as you normally do. A good rule of thumb for worship is to dress modestly.

What should I expect?

When you visit you receive a worship folder that provides notes to help you follow the worship service. You are welcome to join in spoken and sung parts or to just follow along silently if you choose.

Will I be asked to do anything if I visit?

You will not be called out or put on the spot in any way. At worship we want you to meet with God in a way that works for you.

How long is a worship service?

Our Sunday worship services are an hour long most Sundays, and about ten minutes longer on the first and third Sundays of each month when we celebrate Holy Communion.

What do young children do during the service?

We encourage family worship. Yet younger children need to grow into that. During the 10:45am service(9:30am in summer) there is a staffed childcare room for kids around 0-4 years. During the sermon (middle 20 minutes) there is a children's church activity for kids around 4-8 years old.

Any customs I need to be aware of?

You are welcome to participate in most everything. We gather a free will offering at each service but do not expect you to participate. You may if you choose. Our celebration of Holy Communion happens on first and third Sundays of the month. We ask guests to wait to take Holy Communion until we can discuss with you our Bible beliefs and practices. We look forward to the time when new people join us for this sacred meal.
