Sundays · 1:00 — 2:30 PM
Walk in as a stranger. Leave as family.
A short, honest guide to your first Sunday at Presence Sanctuary. We're glad you're considering it.
Hour by hour
What a Sunday actually looks like.
No surprises. No agenda hidden in the bulletin. You arrive, we welcome you, the gospel gets preached, and we eat together after.
- 12:30 PM
Coffee on the porch
Come early. The coffee is good, the donuts are free, and Pastor Geoffrey will introduce himself. Bring whoever you brought.
- 1:00 PM
Worship begins
Twenty-five minutes of singing — old hymns, a few new ones. A worship team that does not perform; they participate. You can sing as loud or as quiet as you like.
- 1:30 PM
The sermon
Pastor Geoffrey opens the scripture and preaches it plainly. Roughly thirty-five minutes. Bring a Bible, a phone, or borrow a pew Bible — we don't mind which.
- 2:10 PM
Communion + closing
We come to the table together. If you trust Christ, you're welcome at the table. If you're still figuring it out, watch — and you'll see why we keep coming back.
- 2:30 PM
After-service
Stay as long as you'd like. There's almost always lunch happening somewhere. We promise we don't make first-timers stand up.
Before you come
Three small comforts.
What do I wear?
Whatever you'd wear to brunch. Jeans, dresses, work boots — the gospel is generous about wardrobe. Come comfortable.
Bringing kids?
Kids of every age are welcome in the service — wiggles included. A quiet room is available off the sanctuary if anyone needs a moment.
Will I be singled out?
Never. We don't ask first-time guests to stand or fill out a card. Come, sit, listen, leave. Or stay forever — your call.
