We know visiting a new church for the first time can feel a little intimidating, so we want you to know that from the moment you arrive, you are welcomed just as you are. As a way to help, we thought that we would give you an idea of what to expect when you come to a Sunday service at our church! 

As you walk through our doors, you will be greeted by our friendly team of greeters who are excited to welcome you and help you find your way if you have any questions.

From there, you'll make your way through the hallway into our foyer. This is where our church family gathers before the service begins at 10:00 AM. You'll find our coffee bar, where our wonderful volunteers are happy to serve you a free cup of coffee. Whether you'd like to enjoy a quiet moment or connect with others, the foyer is a warm place to meet new people, catch up with friends, and experience the welcoming heart of our church community.

At 10:00 AM, everyone makes their way into the sanctuary. There are welcome cards and pens in the back of the seats; you can fill one out and place it into the offering plate! This is a way for us to connect with you and invite you to a newcomers lunch! Our service begins with a time of worship as we lift our voices together in praise to God. The song lyrics are displayed on the screen, so whether you know the songs or are hearing them for the first time, you are invited to sing along and worship with us.

After worship, we'll take our seats, open the service in prayer, then dismiss our children to our nursery, preschool, and elementary classes where they can experience Jesus in a way that is specifically designed for them. Then, we hear a message from God's Word. We desire that every sermon points people to Jesus, encourages faith, and helps us grow in our walk with Him.

At the close of the message, we enter into another time of worship and reflection. During this time, anyone who would like prayer or feels led to respond is welcome to come to the altar. Members of our church are available to pray with you, encourage you, and stand with you in faith. There is never any pressure—simply an open invitation for those who desire it.

Our service typically concludes between 11:00 AM and 12:00 PM, but no one is ever rushed out the door. Many people choose to stay afterward to enjoy conversation, build friendships, and continue growing in community.

Whether you are new to Christianity, returning to church, or have been following Jesus for years, we would love to welcome you. We pray that from the moment you arrive, you will experience the love of Christ, the warmth of our community, and a place where you can grow in your relationship with God.

Welcome to Norwood Pentecostal Church!
