Your First Sunday
Your first Sunday can be simple
Visiting a church for the first time can bring a lot of questions. Before you arrive, we want you to know where to park, where to go, what the service will be like, and what your children can expect.
You do not need to register, and we will not ask visitors to stand or introduce themselves.
Worship with Us
Each Sunday, we hear Scripture, sing and pray, receive Holy Communion, and listen to a message centered on Jesus. Whether the service is traditional or modern, you can expect the same Christian faith and a congregation glad to worship with you.
8:00 a.m. Traditional Worship A reverent service with Lutheran liturgy, hymns, Scripture, a sermon, prayer, and Holy Communion.
9:30 a.m. Traditional or Modern Worship Traditional worship on the first and third Sundays and modern worship on the second and fourth Sundays. Fifth Sundays alternate.
11:00 a.m. Modern Worship Modern Christian music with Scripture, a sermon, prayer, the Creed, and Holy Communion.
Sunday School for children from Pre-K, beginning at age four, through fourth grade meets from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. OSW56 for fifth- and sixth-grade youth meets at the same time. Adult Bible studies are also available.
Nursery care for infants through age five is available during all three services. Services normally last about 60 minutes.
When you arrive
There is plenty of parking around the church, and there is no separate guest entrance. Enter through one of the church’s main public entrances and look for the Welcome Center in the lobby. Our welcome team will be glad to help you find the sanctuary, nursery, Fellowship Hall, classrooms, or restrooms.
There is no dress code. You will see people wearing everything from jeans to jackets and dresses.
Children
Children are welcome in worship. Nursery care for infants through age three is available during all three services. OSWkids Sunday School for children from Pre-K, beginning at age four, through fourth grade meets from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. OSW56 for fifth- and sixth-grade youth meets at the same time.
Children’s check-in is located in the Fellowship Hall. Signs from the lobby will direct you there, and a member of our team will help your family find the right place.
Communion and Accessibility
Holy Communion
Holy Communion is both Christ’s gift and an expression of the faith we share. For that reason, Our Savior’s Way practices close Communion. If you are not a member of an LCMS congregation, please speak with a pastor before receiving Communion. You are still welcome to come forward for a blessing.
Accessibility
The church is accessible from the parking lot through the sanctuary. Accessible parking is available, and an elevator provides access between floors.
