What To Expect
Deciding to attend any church for the first time brings many questions. Where do I park? Do they have a nursery? What do we wear? Will I feel accepted? At BWOC, you’ll find friendly Serve Team members who will point you in the right direction. And yes, there is plenty of parking, shuttle service, and loving, trained children’s workers. If you’re early, grab a coffee at The Centre or complete an easy Pre-Check-In for children in the BWOC Kids’ lobby.
All children between 8 weeks and 11 who participate in our amazing BWOC Kids’ classes must be checked in and checked out by a parent or guardian. Most parents do this before church at 10:15 a.m. and then take their children with them to the sanctuary for our family praise time.
Kids ages 6-11 will begin in the sanctuary with their families and be dismissed to age-appropriate classes if interested. Parents who haven’t checked in their child yet should leave the service momentarily with their child.
Teenagers will begin in the sanctuary with their families. On most Sundays, they will have the option to experience one of our Embassy Student Ministries events.
Our Sunday celebrations consist of ninety minutes of love, hope, music, inspiring stories, personal prayer, and a relevant message from God’s Word, the Bible. Our founding pastor, Pastor Tommy Burchfield, shares his pulpit with our seasoned pastoral team, each contributing something special to our multi-generational church. As you look around, you’ll see a joyful church family of all ages wearing jeans, t-shirts, dresses, and suits.
No one is in a hurry to leave! If you need prayer or have questions about an upcoming event, you can go to The Connect Desk located in the back of the sanctuary. Parents are picking up their children who are showing off their craft or lesson of the day. You’ll also see many people heading to The Centre, our bookstore and coffee bar, a popular location to browse and meet new friends. Most importantly, after church, we will continue to pray for you and your family.
