The primary person we aim to please in a public worship service is God. All people have different tastes and preferences for a Sunday Church service; however, we ask that all people put aside their preferences with regard to music, attire, tradition, etc., and place God first. What does He desire from our worship? What honors and brings glory to Him the most? We do our best to regulate our worship by Scripture in order to ensure that God is worshipped the way He rightly deserves.

When you arrive on Sunday morning we can help you find a Sunday School class which starts at 9:45 am. After that, the main service starts at 11 am. We will sing a mix of contemporary songs alongside traditional hymns with the piano. There is no formal or official dress code, in any given service there will be a mixture of ties and coats in the room while others wear jeans and flannel shirts. We practice expository preaching, which simply means we try to make the main point of the Scripture the main point of the sermon. Typically we dismiss service around noon.

Following the morning service, we host a fellowship meal in our Family Life Center. This meal is potluck-style and everyone is welcome to attend. We fellowship, the children can run around and play with each other, and we all grow closer to the Lord together. We wrap up the meal around 1:20 and begin to head back over to the sanctuary to conclude our Lord’s Day together in an afternoon worship service at 1:30 pm.

Nursery care is provided if needed for children under two years of age. However, as a family-integrated church, we encourage children to participate and be a part of the main morning worship service. We provide activity sheets for the children to follow along at their level, and we encourage parents to teach their children to worship with all of God’s people, regardless of age. For assistance with understanding multi-generational worship services, we recommend this resource.

All people from all backgrounds are welcome to visit our services, and will be greeted with a smile! We hope that you will find FBCLW to be a safe environment for you to be yourself as you join other Christians in the worship of The Lord our God in spirit and truth.
