WELCOME!

Attending a new church can be daunting, regardless of how familiar you are with Christianity. You should know that at The Church at West Creek we find our hope not in ourselves, but in Jesus Christ. We would love to meet you, warmly welcome you into our community, and point you to that same hope. Here are a few questions you might have that can give you a better idea of what to expect: 

What does Sunday morning worship look like?

Our main gathering on Sunday morning at 10:45 lasts a little more than an hour and consists of worship through music, prayer, and preaching. We strive for our music to be robustly biblical, full of the gospel, and singable so that everyone can join in. The main aspect of our time is to hear God's Word preached. We aim to expose God's Word to ourselves instead of imposing ourselves on God's Word. This looks like walking through books of the Bible and letting the main point of the passage determine the main point of the message. For a full description of each of our gatherings, including community groups, foundations, West Creek Kids, and more, see here.


What do I wear?

At West Creek we want you to feel comfortable (whether that is in a full suit and tie or in shorts and sandals). We only ask that you dress in a way that would not be inappropriate to children (clothing with graphic images or adult language). "Man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.” (1 Samuel 16:7)


What about my kids?

West Creek Littles (4 months - 4 years old): Takes place starting at 10:30 am on our lower level during our entire worship service. Two background-checked and trained members of our church will be ready to  strive to create a safe, loving environment for the littlest ones among us. We use short lessons from Truth: 78.


West Creek Kids (5 years old - 4th Grade): Takes place on our lower level first at 9:45 am on Sundays, where kids are introduced to the lesson of the day, do a craft or activity, and work on Scripture memorization. Kids then start with their family in the main service and can join West Creek Kids again downstairs during the sermon. Two background-checked and trained members of our church lead kids through The Biggest Story curriculum.


West Creek Students (5th Grade - 8th Grade): Takes place on our lower level Sundays at 9:45 am, as well as get together outside of Sundays to build relationships. Our students will alternate going through the New City Catechism curriculum and Bible study.


Is the church handicap accessible?

Yes, it is! We have a ramp leading from the parking lot to the main entrance, an ADA compliant restroom, and a chair lift in the building. 


What kind of a church is The Church at West Creek? 

We strive to be a church where Christ is central, the gospel is clear, and the Bible drives all we believe, teach, and do. We are an autonomous church (meaning there is no authority structure above us), but we partner with other like-minded churches and organizations in order to take the gospel to our neighbors and the nations. To learn more about what we believe, you can read our Statement of Faith here). 


How can I become a member?

In 1 Corinthians 12:27, Paul wrote to the church at Corinth, "Now you are the body of Christ, and individually members of it." One of the first steps in being a faithful follower of Jesus is to become a vital member of a local church body, like West Creek. Christians are called to assemble together regularly to build one another up in Christ (Hebrews 10:23-25), to encourage one another regularly (Hebrews 3:12-14), to work together to get the Gospel to lost people around the world (Matthew 28:18-20), to protect each other from sin (James 5:19-20), to guard the church from hypocrisy (Matthew 18:15-18), and to be built up by the regular teaching of God’s Word through gifted teachers (Hebrews 13:17). To faithfully follow these commands, Christians lock arms with other believers in a local assembly to foster deep, authentic, God-glorifying, sin-fighting relationships. Membership at West Creek involves a four-week class, called Membership Matters, where we explain what church membership looks like and answer any questions you might have. After the class, prospective members have the opportunity to meet with the elders and then to be affirmed by the congregation in celebration and covenant.
