New to Wakefield

Visiting a new church can be intimidating for some people. Our desire is for your experience with us to be as positive as possible. Whether you decided to return or not, we want you to feel welcomed while you are with us. Below is a bunch of information about our church that will be helpful to first time visitors.

Service Times
We offer two worship services on Sunday mornings, 9:45 AM and 11:00 AM. For a description of these worship services, click here WAKEFIELD WORSHIP.

In addition to large group worship celebrations on Sunday mornings, we also offer several Sunday School classes. These classes meet at 9:45 AM and 11:00 AM concurrent with our worship services. We have classes during both time slots for all ages of adults and children. For a complete listing of our Sunday School classes, click here SUNDAY SCHOOL.

Where to Park
Just look for the signs that say "Visitor Parking" located behind the main building. If these are full finding a parking spot at our church can be a little tricky at times. We would suggest that you arrive in the parking lot at least 15 minutes before start time so that you can find a space.

Where to Enter
If you have children, we suggest that you enter the door located behind the main building beside the main parking lot. This will place you directly in our children's greeting area. There will be trained childcare workers to help you with your children or to direct you to the worship center. However, you may enter any door as we have greeters waiting to help you find your way.

What to Expect
Expect to be greeted and welcomed with warmth and friendliness. Expect to be challenged by the truth found in the Bible. Expect not be judged for your background or past failures. Expect us to be unimpressed with religious ritualism. Expect God to speak to you. Expect to sense the Holy Spirit working in your life. Expect to find genuine people with a genuine love for others and for Jesus.

How to Dress
There is no dress code. You will see some people in jeans and others wearing suits and ties. A great number of people dress "business casual." We don't care about the style of your clothes. We are more focused on your spiritual needs. Come as you are.

How to Connect
Even if this is your first visit, the best way to get to know us is to attend a Sunday School class. This helps you to get to know us in a small group setting. In addition, check the worship brochure for opportunities to be involved. There is always an event coming up or an opportunity for you to serve.
