New Here
If you’re looking for a church home in the Marietta area, we invite you to visit with us!
This dedicated group meets at 10 a.m. every Sunday in the library. Enjoy a cup of coffee and lively discussion of different books surrounding the Christian faith journey.
Every Wednesday at 6:30 p.m., everyone is invited to pray together, delve into the Gospel of John, and share their experiences meeting new neighbors as we work to connect with our community.
Helping Hands is John Knox’s assistance program that exists to provide monetary and food aid to those experiencing food insecurity and financial crisis.
Worship lasts around 60 minutes. Expect a few extra minutes if it is Communion Sunday.
What should I wear?
Most people wear casual attire, but some still like to dress up! Wear whatever you feel most comfortable in. Come as you are or wear your Sunday best - the Lord loves you whichever you choose, and so do we.
Where should I sit?
The best seats for viewing the service are in the center section facing the chancel where the pastor preaches. All three sections face this area, so no matter where you choose to sit, your view will be good!
Can children come to the service?
Yes! Children are more than welcome to join in the worship service with their families, and we have activity packets with coloring and reading at the rear of the sanctuary. Right before the sermon starts, children have the opportunity to leave for Children’s Time if they choose.
Can I watch the service online?
Yes! Currently, we record our services and post them on our Facebook page via YouTube. These recorded services will also be available on-demand via our website.
Will I feel welcome?
If you don’t, then you left before we could catch you! Our small church family loves nothing more than meeting new neighbors, and rest assured you will immediately feel the love of the congregation. Stay after worship for a few minutes (we have snacks!) and know that you will be welcomed with open arms.
