Expectations

Our desire and prayer is for your first and return visits to be a positive, relaxing and fresh experience. As a people moving by and for God, TRC is committed to building people for God, not a building just for people. So wherever our Sunday worship celebrations are held, you will be greeted by genuine smiles and open arms from our greeters (welcome team) and escorted inside the worship area by our ushers as we prepare to start promptly at 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. If you have children, someone from our welcome team will answer any questions and give you directions on where to take your kids. Of course, you are always welcome to stay together as a family if you wish. Click here min_youth to go to our children & youth team page.

Our worship celebrations acknowledge God's love, faithfulness to us and learning more about His direction for our lives. As we understand what it means to love God, we will realize that God wants us to be just like Jesus. We commit ourselves to studying the Word of God - through the worship message and Life Lessons (Bible Study) for us to mature in Christ. We will help you get started at TRC if you aren't familiar with His life and teachings. If you already know Him, we'll encourage you to keep growing into His likeness. And as we mature in Christ together, it is our desire to be used by God to encourage, refresh and help others in their own spiritual journey by sharing our faith with those around us.
