Children are always welcome at our services, in fact, we include a children’s sermon that often includes puppets and interactive lessons. We also have a staffed nursery next to the sanctuary available during the service for children up to age five.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Congregational churches are independently governed by their own members. Each congregational church operates autonomously.

We are a Protestant church in the Reformed tradition.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
