Dear Friend:
Join us for worship on Sunday mornings at either 8:30 AM or 11:00 AM during the school year and at 10 AM in the summer. All are welcome into the full life of our congregation -- to worship, grow, and serve with us. Westminster Church affirms and accepts each person as created by God with unique qualities, talents, and diverse interests and abilities as well as cultural heritage, color, circumstances, and sexual orientation.
The Sanctuary and Fellowship Hall are handicapped accessible, and worship services offer sound enhancement for persons with hearing impairment, and large print bulletins, plus special bulletins and Bibles for children. Childcare is provided for infants and children up to first grade during the worship services and at many other church-wide gatherings.
Church school classes for all ages are held at 9:30 each Sunday during the school year. Visitors and newcomers are encouraged to participate in the education programs of Westminster. There are also a number of other education opportunities throughout the year.
Westminster offers many avenues for service in its variety of activities, social outreach, worship, and mission to members and non-members alike. University students and others who may be here for only a short amount of time are encouraged and welcomed to take an active part in the life of the congregation along with church members.
We invite you to consider joining our congregation. New members are received into the congregation by action of the Session, the governing body of the church. If you wish to join Westminster Church or have questions about joining, please contact one of the pastors. They will be glad to meet with you personally. Classes for new and prospective members are offered three times during the year. Members may join by letter of transfer from another congregation, by reaffirming their faith, or, if they have never joined the Church, by professing their faith in Jesus Christ.
Information about events and happenings at Westminster is published in our Newsletter every other week on Thursday through most of the year. If you would like to be on the mailing list to receive our Newsletter, you can either put a note on the friendship register at Sunday worship or call the church office (434) 293-3133.
We look forward to seeing you at Westminster!
