What to Expect
Generally speaking, our service begins with worship through music. Most people stand during this time, however, there is complete freedom to be seated if you prefer. The words of all of the songs are projected onto a screen at the front of the sanctuary. Our hope is that you’ll hear songs you know or can relate to, even if you haven’t been to church in years.
We do not take an offering in our service. If you are a guest we do not want you to feel obligated to participate in the offering. Offering is intended for our regular attendees who consider Big Rock their church home and is part of their worship to God.
As our guest, we only ask that you take a few moments to complete our visitor card which is found hanging in the holder under the chairs. The visitor card is used to help us get to know you a bit. It is a place where you can request information, ask for prayer, let us know your thoughts, or just indicate your presence with us. In any case, we use it to pray for you during the week. Please place it in the offering box at the back of the church. You won’t be asked to stand or raise your hand just because you’re new. Nor will you have to recite anything or kneel at certain times during the service.
We hope you will also join us after the service for some refreshments and fellowship. You are important to us and we would like to get to know you.
Big Rock provides practical Bible messages that help you deal with real life issues. We’ll even give you a place to take notes in the bulletin. What you learn on the weekend, you’ll be able to use during the week.
What should I wear?
At Big Rock Baptist, we focus on the heart more than the outward appearance. When you come to one of our weekend services, you will find people dressed in a wide variety of styles from as casual as jeans or shorts, to as formal as suits and dresses. However, most people find themselves somewhere in the middle—most often wearing business casual.
We do ask that people wear clothing that does not draw attention to themselves. We think that what you wear to church should not detract from the worship experience of others around you. We want all of the attention to go to Jesus Christ.
