Newcomers are always welcome to our church, we love new faces to greet. We would love to welcome you on a Sunday morning with a fresh coffee, a smile, and a small gift as our way of saying "thanks for joining us, and we hope to see you soon". Before you come, perhaps you have questions? Here's where you can get answers to most of our FAQ, such as:
Our church is a mixed generation church. That means we have Seniors, Families, Babies, Teenagers, and everything in between. We try to be a church that considers newcomers, as well as those who have been part of the church for decades. We are relaxed, informal, and LOVE meeting new people. We also have some great pot-lucks where everyone is invited.
KIDS ROCK! We love our ARBC Kids. We have dedicated programs and staff for our kids. We have a Kids Church where the kids are excused during the sermon portion of the service. We have a Summer Kids Night program, as well as a one week VBS Summer Camp. Your kids will definitely be welcomed here!
This is a great question, because we have an upper and a lower parking lot. When you drive in, follow the hill up to your right to park in our Upper Lot on Sunday mornings. Have no fear if it's full and you have to use the lower lot, our building is completely accessible, with an elevator to go between floors.
In short, whatever makes you comfortable. If you prefer jeans and a t-shirt, sweatpants, a suit and tie, a dress, shorts, whatever you are styling that day, you're welcome to wear it.
If you come on a Sunday, a greeter will show you our Welcome Centre where you can fill out a "Get Connected" card. A staff member will follow up with you after that. Otherwise, you can always email our church office at avenueroad@rogers.com
