WELCOME TO WORSHIP!
WHAT GOES WHERE AND WHY
THE ALTAR/CROSS/BIBLE
The altar, cross, and Bible have always been a central feature of
PCUMC's sanctuary. This will continue to be reflected by placing the altar
elevated and in front of the stage.
PULPIT/LECTERN
The ongoing centrality of God's Word reflected in the Bible on the altar,
will also be expressed with the pulpit centrally located. (this also is a
reflection of limited shared space.)
ORGAN
Rather than store our incredible organ, we enlisted the help of the Allen
Organ Company, who originally installed the organ to help us move it. We
have the joy of hearing the same beautiful music that we are accustomed to
at our 8 & 11 am services.

BAPTISMAL FONT
We anticipate the life of our church through worship to continue to grow.
The baptismal font will be placed up front just as it was in our regular
sanctuary.
SCREENS
We will begin worshipping with the current single projection screen. We
have ordered High Definition LED Screens that will enable us to see images
more clearly. Those will be put in place as soon as they arrive.

OFFICE HOURS
Monday - Thursday 8:30am - 4:30pm, Friday 8:30am - Noon
INSTRUMENTS
Our Praise and Worship Band will continue to provide musical
leadership from the front of the Sanctuary, which necessitates that they be
situated on the stage in front of us.
BANNERS
We have so many lovely banners which highlight the seasons of the
church year. When you look around our "sanctuary" you will see that the
banners are arranged on the walls in a clockwise fashion walking through
the Christian year.
