Nursery – 5 years old

  • Nursery care is available during Sunday services for children 2 months through 5 years old. We suggest arriving 10-15 minutes early to allow for parking, registering your children with our Children’s Ministry, and finding a seat for the worship service. Our nursery wing is located next to the chapel. All children must be checked in at one of our check-in stations located in the lobby of either the worship center or chapel.

 

Kinder – 5th Grade

    • 9AM Traditional worship – there is a children’s moment during the service.
    • 11AM Contemporary worship – your child will sit with you during worship and will then be invited to join Kid’s Church for biblical teaching and age-appropriate discussion. They will rejoin you following the sermon to participate in the Lord’s Supper.

Our services typically last about 1-hour.

Our services typically begin with a time of passionate worship led by our Chancel Choir at the 9AM Traditional service and our Worship Team at our 11AM Contemporary service. Most people stand during this time. However, there is complete freedom to be seated if you prefer. The words of all the songs are projected onto a screen. You can either sing along, or just enjoy the music. This time is meant to prepare your heart for the message.

During the service, we will take a general offering. If you are a guest, please do not feel obligated to participate in the offering. This is intended for our regular attendees and members who consider Faith Methodist Church, a Global Methodist Church, their church home.

Holy Communion is offered on the first Sunday of the month at the 9AM Traditional service. It is offered every Sunday at the 11AM Contemporary service. At Faith Methodist Church, we believe in open communion – that means that anyone who believes in Jesus Christ is welcome to take communion, whether they are a church member or not.

Following worship, we’ll be encouraged and challenged with a practical message from the Bible. Our preaching is both expository and applicational. We won’t just study God’s Word during the message—we will learn how to apply it to our daily lives.

  • If you are hard of hearing, assisted listening devices are available at the back of the worship center and chapel. Please ask an usher if you need assistance.
  • If you are confined to a wheelchair, we have designated seating areas available in the worship center and chapel. Please ask an usher if you need assistance.

New Sermon Series

Begins October 27

 

No Longer Slaves
A sermon series on Fear and Anxiety

As we enter into the rush and business of the holiday season, our anxiety and fear can feel overwhelming. Most of us know Philippians 4:6-7 as a verse for these times, but in Psalm 34 David is feeling the same way. He encourages praise and rejoicing to God and says in verse 4 “I sought the Lord, and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears.” This five-week series will be on overcoming fear and anxiety in Jesus’ name. Join us in person or online and hear how God promises that if we trust Him, He will be with us. Amen!

  • October 27: Knowing Is Half the Battle: Understanding Fear and Anxiety
  • November 3: Into the Unknown: Trusting God in Uncertain Times
  • November 10: Steady Hands: God’s Presence in Our Fear
  • November 17: Mental Discipline: Renewing the Mind
  • November 24: Reframing the Circumstances: The Power of Giving Thanks
