What Should I Wear on Sunday Mornings? 

We are a "come-as-you-are" church. Dress comfortably and as casual or dressed-up as you like.

What Style of Music is Played on Sunday Mornings?

Our music is comprised of many of the best worship and praise songs heard on Christian radio today (K-LOVE 89.5 FM). Our messages are designed to be engaging, relevant, and helpful. We use the Bible in a modern English translation as our primary source for teaching. Our service typically begins with a worship music set of approx. 20 mins., announcements, video clips, and prayer with the message duration approx. 40-45 mins. The total service runs approximately 1 hr. 15 mins.

Where Should I Park? 

Our parking lot at the rear of the church building is easily accessible from W. Main Street or from W. Second Street, as space allows. Limited spaces are available for handicapped and special needs guests are marked in our Church Parking Lot. Additional parking is available on various side streets, in the Cornerstone Bank parking lot (ONLY on Sundays), behind the Wawa (directly across the street from the church), in the York House East parking lot (in unreserved lined spaces), and in the municipal parking lot located just one block east of the church on W. Second Street at N. Church Street (behind Rite Aid / Peter Pan Gifts). Please DO NOT park in the CVS Pharmacy Parking Lot at any time. See Parking Map for more details.
