Work on our parking lot begins June 2nd. Once the concrete is poured, it will be another 4+ weeks before we can drive on it. Until then, this is our parking plan for Sundays.

Options for Parking During Construction:
1. Park at Fareway and walk across.
Cross Hwy 5 at signal and follow the marked path on the sidewalk.

2. Drop off your family/passengers by the church sidewalk, park at Fareway or on the street and walk to church.
After dropping off passengers, please follow the flow of traffic as indicated by orange arrows to get to Fareway. If you are parking on the street, please note there is no parking on Market St., the frontage road, or School St. Follow all street signs as they are marked.

3. Park at Fareway and take a "Member Shuttle" to the church.
Shuttles run 8:30-8:50am and will return you after Bible study unless other arrangements are made. Please fill out the form on our website if you would like a shuttle ride.

In all cases, we will need to access the church using the sidewalk. We will have elders and ushers on hand to assist walkers as needed.
