What should I expect when I visit?
At Park Crest, we feel that it’s OUR responsibility to “clear the way” for you to come to church. We want you to be able to experience the great music, encouraging messages, friendly people and enjoyable atmosphere that are a part of Park Crest. And we know that your first time at a church, any church, brings up some questions.Here's some answers:
- You can expect to meet friendly people who, like you, are on a journey.
- You can expect to have friendly children's workers and a clean environment for your children.
- You can expect to hear quality music and an engaging message that speaks to your life situation.
- You can expect to NOT be asked to participate in the offering.
- You can expect to dress as you wish and find others dressed the same way.
- Most important, you can expect to sense the presence of God and leave with a new-found hope!
What if I've not been in church for a while?
If it’s been a long time since you’ve been to church, Park Crest has you in mind! There’s already enough you have to think about when you’re visiting a church for the first time. We hope that getting some of this “stuff” out of the way not only encourages you to join us for church, but also helps you to connect with the hope and encouragement that God has for you.
What about my children?
We know that as a parent you need be sure that your children are in a SAFE learning environment. And we know that your children are looking for a FUN place to learn. We’ve invested a lot to make sure that both of these goals are reached. You’ll see that in the buildings the children and students meet in, and even more in the volunteers who work with your kids.
What will the service be like?
You'll enjoy upbeat music and practical messages that help you deal with real life issues. We’ll even put each Scripture verse on the screen for you, and in the corner of the screen the next verse will be listed. What you learn on the weekend, you’ll be able to use during the week. We want to help you connect with the personal hope and practical help that God can give us.
