Sunday Worship Experience
The focus of our worship is God. This can clearly be seen in the selection of scripture, music, and prayer in our services. Because we believe that different worship styles are needed to cater to the different lifestyles of people, we offer three worship services most Sunday mornings. Our Blended Worship Service is at 9 a.m. in the Sanctuary and our contemporary worship experience, the gathering, meets upstairs at 9 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. in the Gathering Space. Our Evening Worship is at 6 p.m. in the Chapel. Here is a link to our Sunday Schedule for any changes that might occur.
CONNECTIONS CLASS
Sunday School
Sunday School meets on Sunday mornings at 9 or 10:30 a.m. The life of our church happens in these classes. No matter what season of life you’re in, we have Sunday School class to encourage and ignite spiritual growth, deepen relationships with others, and serve our community, state, nation, and the world through missions and evangelism.
FAQ
What do I wear?
Good news! There’s no dress code at Temple. While here on Sunday, you may notice that our people aren’t defined by one particular style of dress. From “very casual” to “Sunday Best,” our congregation is a collection of ordinary people who are different ages, come from different backgrounds, but unify with one purpose

Childcare is provided for preschoolers from birth thru kindergarten from 9-11:30 a.m. by caring members who teach God’s Word called First Steps.
