WELCOME TO THE FAMILY
We're so glad you're here!
If it's your first time at Parkway, you are our honored guest. Parkway Church is a place where people can meet Jesus, engage in life-giving community, and everyone is welcome. We believe in creating a space where people can have authentic encounters with Christ, discover their gifts and use them for God's glory. Join us for our Sunday services!
Everyone needs a place where they belong, where people are real and they truly care for you. At Parkway we love people and we love Jesus. No matter where you’re from or where you’ve been, Parkway is a place where you are loved.
We meet every Sunday in-person and online.
We'd love to connect with you.
Come experience God this week with us.
No Awkward First Visits
We do things a little differently around here…
We know it can be a little weird or even awkward visiting a church for the first time…
That’s why we created Plan Your Visit.
When you sign up for Plan Your Visit we’ll:
✅ special parking at the top of the mountain
✅ meet you at the front door
✅ help you get your kids checked in
✅ introduce you around to a few people
✅ give you a tour of the church if you'd like
✅ we’ll even sit with you if you want (so you don't have to sit by yourself)
We want to make your first visit as easy as possible, and actually take time to get to know you and your family.
Pretty crazy idea, right?
Will you come hang out with us this Sunday?

Where do I go when I get there?
Once you get to the top of the hill, our parking team will direct you to the closest available spot. Just follow the smiling faces in the bright vests. We reserve parking spots for our first time guests, so if you’re new to Parkway, follow the signs to the guest parking spots. As you’re walking to the building, our greeting team will meet you and show you where to find the worship center, restrooms, and children’s ministry. If you need anything throughout the day—mints, ear plugs, a Bible, or a pen—feel free to stop by the Welcome Center. Or, just ask anyone with a Parkway lanyard or name tag. We’re a friendly bunch, and we’d love to serve you. The Welcome Center is right inside the lobby, off to the right. You’ll want to stop by after service so we can meet you and give you a gift!
How long is the service?
Services last about one hour and 10 minutes. Our first service starts at 9:00 AM and our second begins at 10:30 AM. We start with worship, followed by a message from our Pastor, our staff, or guest speaker. If you want to see our preaching style, check out our current series in the “Watch” Tab on the main menu. If you’re visiting for the first time, you’ll want to give yourself a few extra minutes to stop by the Welcome Center after the service. You are a very important person to us! We’d love to meet you, answer any questions you may have, and give you a gift.
What should I wear?
Don’t feel like you have to dress up. Most people wear casual attire, but you are welcome to wear whatever makes you comfortable.
Is there something for my kids?
We have nursery available for babies and toddlers. For nursing mothers, we also have a viewing room where moms and infants can watch the service together.
