Faith Church looks pretty traditional on the outside. It's a brick building across the street from Holland Hospital. It has wooden pews, a stage, and organ pipes behind the pulpit. It was built in the 60's before churches started experimenting with the "big box" designs that resemble Walmart, but it's up to date with top-notch video and sound systems, including digital aids for the hearing impaired. Our services are even televised on Comcast Channel 14 and Charter Communications Channel 22.

But it's not the outside that counts. And what's going on inside that makes all the difference. Faith Church is more than a place. It's a movement. It's an experiment in reconciliation of the races. It's a rest stop for hurting people from all walks of life, all economic conditions, and all physical abilities.

Worship is every Sunday at 9:30 AM and 6:00 PM. No two services are alike. Sometimes the music is led by guitars, drums and a keyboard; sometimes the organist takes the lead. We're always on the lookout for new songs and blending them with the more familiar tunes. Frequently you'll get a taste of other forms of worship like sacred dance from some of our own talented girls, or special music by a guest artist. But you can always count on solid soul-food - preaching that explains the Bible, puts it in context, and makes it relevant to your life, your challenges, and your pain.

After the morning service, you'll have lots of options. First, we'll welcome you with a cup of coffee, cappuccino, tea or juice, and a cookie if you like. Then there are a variety of classes to choose from for kids and adults alike. You can browse through the library for books or videos that might interest you or your family. The choir typically practices at that time if you'd just like to sit in and listen. Everyone is usually on their way home around noon.
