Frequently asked questions
What should I wear?
Come as you are! Everyone at Reaching Hearts dresses in a variety of styles depending on his or her background and preferences. Some people wear very casual clothes, and some dress more formally, while others choose to wear traditional clothing representing their country of origin. You are welcome to dress however you feel comfortable!
Are my children welcome to attend the church service?
We believe in multi-generational participation during church service. Our community intentionally invests in the spiritual well-being of our youth, and believes that empowering them to lead in the church is essential to their development. This begins with inclusion, and therefore, children of all ages are always welcome.
What is service like?
Our 90 minute church service includes: congregational singing, prayer, welcome messages and announcements, a children's story, special music, and a sermon from either one of our pastors or a guest speaker.
Is there Sabbath School?
Come early and join one of our Sabbath School classes for children, collegiate/young adults or adults. There is something for all ages. Just ask one of our greeters at the front door, and they will be happy to direct you. Sabbath School begins at 9:30 a.m. and ends by 10:45 a.m each Saturday. Each discussion group covers a variety of topics related to the Bible and living out our faith.
When does church service typically end?
Usually between 12:30 and 12:45 p.m.
Where can I watch if I can't attend in person?
Every Saturday we live-stream the service on our Facebook page and YouTube channel.
What opportunities are there for children?
Every Saturday, we have engaging Sabbath School classes dedicated to all age groups that start at 10:00 a.m. Ask a greeter at the door and they can direct you and your child(ren) to the appropriate class.

Every 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month there is a Vegetarian Fellowship Potluck. Everyone is welcome to join us. There is also a table of food items available for vegans. Potluck usually begins at 1:00 p.m. following the close of church service.
What happens after the worship service?
We have a busy calendar and we hope you will join us for some of the many opportunities we have for fellowship, food, Bible study, and outreach.
