There's no dress code here. Some of us show up in Sunday best, some in jeans, and everyone belongs exactly as they are.

When You Arrive

Look for a greeter near the entrance. They will help you find your way, answer any questions, and point you toward seating. You don't need to know anyone going in. Just come.

Our church is located at the northwest corner of U.S. 231 and Mitch Daniels Boulevard (formerly State Street) in West Lafayette, just west of the Purdue Horticulture Park.
