bass guitar, violin & djembe drum.
What
does Renaissance have for my family?
We have a nursery and a number of children's classes, including
a teens class.
Nursery - Ages 3 and under
Renaissance Kids - Ages 4 to 9
Preteens - Ages 10 to 12
Teens - Ages 13 and up.
Do I have to dress up?
That's up to you. We have folks who dress up, but most dress casual.
Do you speak or preach?
We preach between 30 and 50 minutes from the Bible. We believe
the most important thing for your life is to have a practical
understanding of the Bible. This is how God primarily guides and
directs us in this life. The audio archive
can give you a feel for our messages.
Do we observe Mass or the Lord's
Supper?
Mass we do not observe. We are not a Catholic Church. We observe
the Lord's Supper once or twice a month as a celebration of fellowship,
not as the continued sacrfice of Christ.
Do we collect money in the service?
No. Monetary offerings are for members who place their gifts in
baskets at the back by the sound board. We do not 'pass the plate'
in the service. We do not encourage visitors to participate.
Do you have altar calls?
No. If people have questions or need prayer or other spiritual
help our leaders are ready and available to assist you after the
service. We do not call people forward at the end of the service.
Do I need a Bible?
If you need a Bible, we will give you one. Being in a movie theater
we make use of Powerpoint to project Bible excerpts on the large
screen. While you don't need a Bible to follow along it's always
helpful to have one so that you can read the context and keep
it before you.
What if I have questions or need
spiritual help?
If you have questions, need prayer or other spiritual help with
the Christian life our leaders will be available to help you with
your need.
