A Few Questions You May
Have Before You Visit...
Do you really like having guests?
|
Yes! We LOVE having guests in our services!!! In fact, we have a gift already prepared for you when you enter the building, because we want you to know that we are honored to host you as our guest. We understand that stepping into a new church for the first or second time can be a little unnerving. Be assured that we will do all we can to make you feel at home and at ease. We want your visit to be life-enriching, not an awkward or stressful experience.
During our morning worship service, our congregation is led in singing songs that teach us about the Christian life. Everything we do is centered on the Bible, rather than on our tradition or opinion. Therefore, every service involves a carefully prepared sermon by our pastor, Bryan Shaffer. Pastor Shaffer’s preaching method involves teaching that is rooted in the text of the Bible. Messages are intended to encourage Christians in their walk with God, as well as to instruct on how to have eternal life through a personal relationship with Jesus.

What should I wear?
|
At Eagle Heights, we are most concerned, as Jesus is, about the condition of the inner person. Therefore, external appearance, though important, is not our primary concern. At Eagle Heights, we seek to maintain an atmosphere that helps us to focus on Jesus Christ. As a guest, you will probably be most comfortable dressed in what may be called “business casual." However, don't worry about what you wear. We won't. We'll just be glad you came to join us.
Please be at ease! You will not be asked to pray aloud, sing, read, or say anything publicly. Although an offering plate is passed during the service for our church family to participate in giving, we do not want our guests to feel any obligation to give. We do not desire to get anything from you, we desire to be a blessing to you.
We have exciting opportunities for everyone of every age in your family. We have a nursery staffed with a screened, professionally trained workers. We take every precaution to maintain the safety and comfort of your little ones. We also have a children's church during the service time, for children from 3 years old, through the 4th grade. These special services enable children to learn about God with age appropriate lessons. In our Adult Fellowship Classes, you will find a smaller community where closer friendships are easy to make. During the main services, you will have the opportunity to hear Bible Preaching, special music, and enjoy a time of worshipping God together. We have something for everyone, so bring your whole family when you visit!
