Visitor Welcome Page
Thanks for visiting our welcome page! We’d also be happy to have you join us in person for Sunday services. Here are answers to some questions you might have if you’re thinking of joining us for worship.
When are your services?
We have services at 9 am and 11 am on Sundays during the school year, and one service at 10 am during July and August. We also have a schedule of more contemporary services Sunday evenings on the second Sunday of the month. Follow the link for more complete information on our schedule of worship.
Where are you located?
Here are directions to our church.
What should my family and I wear to your church?
We’re more concerned with making you welcome than with what you look like! We don’t have a dress code. Some people like to dress up for church services, while others come and worship in casual attire. Come as you are!
Is there childcare or Sunday School during services?
Yes, childcare is provided during all services for ages birth to 3 years. During the school year there are Sunday School classes open to all children and youth during the 11 am service. In June, July and August there is a Sunday School class for children ages 4 through 2nd grade.
Can my child stay with me during the service?
Your child is always welcome to stay with you during service.
Are people like me welcome in this congregation?
Our congregation strives to respect and welcome all people. We encourage people of all ages, races, colors, socio-economic backgrounds, ethnic origins, gender, sexual orientation, and enablement to join with us in worship and celebration.
May I partake of Communion in your church?
Yes. The United Methodist Church believes in open Communion; you do not need to be a member of our church or of the Untied Methodist denomination to receive Communion.
How can I meet people?
Come to the coffee hour in our lower level fellowship hall; there are light refreshments and fellowship served up after each service!
How can I get involved at your church?
There are plenty of opportunities to get involved at West Side; here are some. If you decide you’d like to join our church, there is information on new members classes.
