When you arrive at Seven Rivers for our service, you are invited to park in the front in the visitors parking spaces and use the main entrance. There is signage to help you find your way. Click here for directions to the Seven Rivers.

At this time we have handicapped parking near our covered drop-off. When you enter either the west (nearest the drop off) or east doors to the sanctuary, there is shortened pew designed for a wheel chair. This area gives easy access to the sanctuary and is closest to the exit doors for after the service.

At the front door, there should be some friendly people (we call them “greeters”) to say hello, answer any questions you have, and direct you to the sanctuary. If you need childcare, (ages 0-4) they can show you to the nursery. After singing and some worship we dismiss the children in grades K-2 to children's church in Room 406 (you may accompany them to see where to pick them up). If your children are shy, they’re welcome to attend the adult service with you, but most kids really enjoy children's church, available during all services.

You’ll notice that everyone is dressed comfortably, in anything from traditional church clothes to office casual to jeans and sneakers. If you arrive early, you’re welcome to browse in the bookstore (near the entrance) and pick up information about Seven Rivers in the lobby area.

When you come in the sanctuary, you’ll be given a copy of the "Bulletin” which has the agenda for the day’s service and an insert with the week’s announcements and an outline for the sermon, with room to make notes if you like. You can request a nametag to be made for you at the Guest Services Desk. (Many people like to wear a nametag to make it easier to meet new friends.)

The service usually begins with some upbeat music, followed by a welcome and introduction to the theme of the day’s service. There is a time of community where we shake hands with those around us. Sometimes, there will be a drama or multimedia presentation to further explore the day's theme. More singing will follow led by the worship team. We have a heart for God's children of all ages and our worship reflects a variety of styles and tastes; from contemporary with a praise band to hymns accompanied by an organ.

We include collecting tithes and offerings as part of our worship and thanksgiving to God. We want you to feel welcome as our guest, and let the plate pass. After the offering, a book is passed down the rows for you to enter any information you would like us to have.  In the front flap of the book you will find a first time guest card.  We hope you will fill this card out and bring it by the Guest Services Desk as you leave - we have a gift for you and everyone worshiping with you (kids included).

The message will be based on the Bible, and often includes interesting quotes from contemporary people, songs, or movies. You'll hear solid Christian theology in intelligent, understandable, relevant terms, and hopefully, you’ll laugh at times and maybe feel a tug at your heart, too.  A prayer and song will follow the message.

After the service, you'll pick up your kids from their classrooms, and then we hope you’ll stay, meet some people and enjoy some refreshments in the Florida Room or at the Seven Rivers Coffee Bar. Church is about God and worship, but it is also about community and friendship, so we hope you will genuinely experience warmth and friendliness at Seven Rivers.

That’s about it. People constantly tell us that they really felt comfortable - “at home” are the words we hear most frequently. We hope you’ll join us this weekend.
