THE SANCTUARY

Join us next Sunday or watch a service online now.

A PLACE TO BELONG, TO BECOME, and TO GO BEYOND.

WE’VE SAVED YOU A SEAT

The Sanctuary is a thriving church made up of people from many different walks of life, different backgrounds, and different cultures. It's a church of lively worship and passionate preaching. It's a church where God shows up and lives are changed.

We invite you to explore our website and discover more about who we are, what we believe, and how you can get involved in our mission. Ultimately, we would love for you to join us for service and experience all God is doing for yourself.

  • Each Sunday at 9AM, the Holy Rhost Cafe’ is open and and ready to take your order. We also have doughnuts and regular coffee available for free. We invite you to join other members of The Sanctuary for a time of fellowship before our morning classes.

    We also have per-service prayer from 9:00-9:45AM in our multipurpose room.

  • Every Sunday at 10AM, we have targeted classes for all ages - from the youngest to the oldest - that help each member of the family grow in their relationship with God.

  • Each Sunday at 11AM, The Sanctuary gathers for our weekly worship service. You can expect exuberant worship, powerful prayer, and passionate preaching, but most of all, you can expect God to meet you wherever you are at.

  • Each Wednesday night at 7PM, The Sanctuary family gathers together for a time of worship and study of God’s Word. There are also special services for our kids and youth happening at this time.
