PLAN YOUR VISIT
If the idea of walking into a building full of strangers is not your cup of tea, we would love to help you make first visit to our church a little easier.
Sign up below, and someone from our team will reach out. When you arrive we'll have someone waiting for you at the front door to help you find your way around.
We gather to worship God, encourage one another, and be re-saturated with the gospel.
And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. 2 Corinthians 3:18 NIV
Celebration
We are going to sing and sing loudly. Jesus is worth celebrating every week.
Life Change
God loves us just as we are, and he loves us too much to leave us there. Expect to experience growth in your relationship with God.
It's All About Jesus
You're going to hear the same message every week from a different passage: the Good News of Jesus.
Biblical Preaching
Expository, Gospel-Centered, and Passionate.
We preach the Bible, centered on the gospel of Jesus Christ. We believe that the gospel isn’t just a set of statements to believe; it’s a Person to know.
We open the Bible to see how the gospel changes everything about how we think, what’s ultimate in our hearts, and how we live.
Engaging Worship
We believe one day we will sing at the top of our lungs in the presence of Jesus for all eternity, so why not start now?
We believe everything already belongs to our God, so we give freely and generously.
And we believe that Jesus has already one the victory, so we celebrate like every weekend is Resurrection Sunday.
The Next Generation
The Next Generation is our responsibility, so we take caring for your kids very seriously.
Kids will learn about Jesus and have fun in a safe, engaging environment.
Visiting a new church is hard enough as it is let alone visiting one where you don't know the culture and expectations. Here are some frequently asked questions to help give you some peace of mind.
Do you have more questions? Don't hesitate to reach out and ask! We'd love to answer any additional questions you might have.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where are you located?
Just down the street from Harvest Market off of Neil Street, and a few minutes off campus in Champaign.
Where do I Park?
We've got plenty of parking all around our building. Look for some tall black and white flags, and find a spot!
What should I wear?
Come in whatever is most comfortable for you. Some people dress up, some people dress casually, but there is no dress code.
Will I be singled out during the service if I'm new?
Yikes! No way. We wouldn't want that done to us so we won't do it to you.
What should I expect during worship?
Celebratory praise from a mix of new and old songs. Ancient and modern elements. We like to sing and sing loudly about Jesus.
Am I expected to give money?
No. But if you'd like to, you can!
Do you have something for my kids?
Yes! Kid City is our children's' ministry. Your kids will be well taken care of by our friendly, background checked and highly trained team who are eager to serve your kids (and you) during your time with us.
Do I need to pre-register my child?
Nope. We'll make it easy to register your child when you get here.
But if you Plan a Visit, we're happy to register them beforehand!
What are your service times?
We have two services at 9 and 11. (Occasionally, during the summer months, we drop to one gathering, so be sure to check the main page for updated service times!)
What if I'm not a Christian or am exploring faith?
We think coming to our gathering is a great way to get a sense of what following Jesus is all about! It will also give you a chance to meet someone and learn more as you investigate your faith.
