Worship
Summer Sundays: 10:30 am
Sanctuary
Services are held every Sunday year-round in the main Sanctuary filled with stunning stained glass windows. Choral anthems, hymns, breathtaking organ and piano accompaniment, thought-provoking sermons, and traditional prayers make worship a joyous and rejuvenating experience.
Seaside Garden, Tod's Point
In the summer months, worship is also held in the Seaside Garden at Tod's Point. Bring a chair and enjoy the same traditional service in casual outdoor comfort. There's also a special "children's church" for the youngsters. No passes or permits are required – just tell gate attendant you're going to church.
What to Expect
Park in the Lafayette Municipal lot.
We invite everyone to come in whatever attire reflects your relationship with God – casual or more “dressed up”, most importantly with reverent respect and desire to attire our hearts and minds and lives every day with Holy Love. “As God’s beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentle strength, and patience. … Above all, clothe yourselves with love which binds everything together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts … and be thankful.” (Colossians 3:12-15)
We typically worship in a more liturgical style. We pray, sing and ring bells, read scripture, and reflect together in a sermon with familiar rhythms each week. Excellent music and preaching have long been a valued hallmark of our congregation. We celebrate communion and baptism regularly, accenting how God claims us and strengthens us to serve with Holy Love. Numerous other special occasions punctuate joy and purpose in our life together. We ever seek to balance familiarity and flexibility, radiating a warm spirit that relevantly engages our world.
We offer a safe and engaging nursery for infants and a vibrant children's ministry during the Sunday morning service. Our check-in process ensures security while allowing kids to grow in faith.
