What to Expect

Pastor offering communion to churchgoer

We’re so glad you’re considering a visit to Olivet Lutheran Church! Whether you’re new to church, returning after some time away, or just looking for a new place to worship, we want you to feel at home.

We offer two Sunday morning worship opportunities: a traditional service at 9:00 AM, and a contemporary service (The Vine) at 11:00 AM. Both services run approximately 60-70 minutes, and our building is fully handicap accessible. Occasionally, both services are combined into one service at 10 AM (typically on the 5th Sunday of applicable months or for special occasions; our worship calendar is available here). At our traditional service, attire is typically business casual, while our contemporary service has a more relaxed, casual dress code. Come as you are!

There’s something for every generation at Olivet, and we strive to connect with and offer Christ-centered nurturing to all – from infants and children to teens and young adults to empty-nesters and seniors. Children are welcome and included during our worship services. Childcare is available during both services in our nursery for children ages infant through 3 years.

We invite you to join us for worship, for prayer, for a meal, for service, for fun. We pray that you’ll grow in your love for God and a desire to share life in Christ Jesus with us.
