What to Expect
What do I wear?
We do not have a dress code, but we wanted you to know what to expect when you arrive. Members and guests who attend our Sunday Morning Worship times or our Wednesday Evening Activities are very relaxed and casually dressed. Those who attend Sunday Morning Worship wear anything from jeans and semi-casual attire to a suit and tie or a dress. Feel welcome to come just as you are.
Where do I go?
When you first arrive at Memorial, you will be met at the door by one of our greeters. These are folks who are willing and happy to see that you get to where you need to be. Just ask a greeter, and they will be glad to help you get settled in and ready for a great morning. For more detailed information about our church, we have a "Welcome Desk" in the foyer to the left as you walk in. We have friendly folks who will be happy to answer any questions about the church.
As a visitor, will I have to stand up and be singled out?
No. We only ask that you take a moment to fill out the white “Welcome” card located in the back of each pew. You can return this to the offering plate as you exit the sanctuary. You can also hand it to the Pastor at the end of the service or drop it off at the Welcome Desk.
Where can my Children go?
On Sunday Mornings and special evening services, we offer nursery services for children ages infant to 3 years. Of course, you are welcome to bring your infant or toddler into the sanctuary if you wish. Children ages 4 and up attend the worship service.
Once a month, typically the last Sunday, we have Children’s Church during the worship hour. This is for grades K-4 and meets in the Children’s Loft.
On Wednesday nights during the school year, the nursery is open for children ages infant to 3 years. Children 4 and up attend Wee Worshipers or Jazzy Juniors. Youth begins at grade 7.
Special Needs Ministry
We are excited to offer Special Needs Ministry during Sunday Morning Worship at 10am as well as during the 9:00am Sunday School hour. For visitors, we would love to know that you are coming. Please contact the church office at (540) 885-8033 to let us know that you plan to visit. The last Saturday of each month is our Respite Night. Bring your special guest to a wonderful evening from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM and enjoy a couple of hours of respite while we enjoy their company with food, fun, crafts, and games.
What if I have any questions?
