Our worship is best described as spirited worship in a traditional setting.
During worship we carve out a holy space in the midst of our busy lives and
offer God our best praise. We also stop and listen for God's voice. Our many choirs
and musical ensembles help us focus on God's presence. Our newly renovated
Austin pipe organ is one of the most beautiful instruments in the valley. Our
pastors provide powerful biblical preaching. Join us in worshiping God!
