You Are Invited_edited.jpg

​

We invite you

to worship with us!​

​

  • PARKING - A small parking lot is located next to the church and can be accessed from River Street, which runs behind the church building. Ample on-street parking can also be found on East Main Street and Dock Street. Parking is also available in both Sovereign Bank and M&T Bank parking lots (Sunday mornings only).

​

  • ENTERING THE CHURCH - You may use either entrance doors on the front of the building. Once inside, you will find a friendly greeter who will direct you to the Sanctuary, which is located on Level Two (or the Chapel on Level One if our service is being held there). If you need the elevator, they will assist you. Restrooms are located on the Ground Level.

​

  • ENTERING THE SANCTUARY/CHAPEL - An usher will give you a worship bulletin to guide you through the service. Children's activity bags are also available. Offering plates are located on a stand inside each Sanctuary entrance (or just outside the Chapel).

​

  • DURING THE SERVICE - Please be mindful that the service is being recorded for those who are viewing online. If we are celebrating the Sacrament of Holy Communion, the elements (bread and wine/juice) will be distributed by the ushers. The Mite Family Room is available in the rear of the Sanctuary for those who have difficulty sitting for longer periods of time. 

​

  • LEAVING THE SANCTUARY/CHAPEL - At the end of the service, you may spend a few moments in prayerful reflection during the postlude music or exit using either of the stairwells. If you need the elevator, an usher will assist you.

The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light;

those who lived in a land of deep darkness -

on them light has shined.

~ Isaiah 9:2
