Visitor Information

Welcome to Meredith Drive Reformed Church's website.  Click the above tabs to explore our site and learn more about us.

Below are answers to some of the questions you may have as you consider visiting us.

What time are the services and what should I wear?

What is worship like?
Our services at the Meredith Drive campus are a blend of traditional and contemporary music, using praise choruses and hymns.  A praise team leads the singing accompanied by a praise band and/or piano and organ.  A choir anthem is included in the services most Sundays.

Our services at the Bridge campus are an energetic contemporary service led by a praise team and praise band.

How will I know where to go?
There are greeters to welcome you at each door on Sunday mornings, and they will be happy to answer your questions and direct you to the right place.  Another great resource is the Welcome Center in the lobby of  each campus.  Someone is always there before and after services to give you information or offer any help you need.  Signs are also placed throughout the buildings to point you in the right direction.
 

What is there for my children?
Nursery care is available during the morning services and the Sunday School time (9:00 to 10:00 a.m.  and 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. at both campuses) for infants thru 2 1/2 year olds.

Sunday School is offered at 9:00 a.m. at both campuses September through May  for children 3 yrs through 12th grade.

A Children's Worship experience is offered during the message portion of  the 10:30 service at both campuses. This allows children to be with their families and the congregation during a significant part of worship; they may enjoy, participate and learn with you.  Just before the ushers come forward for offering, the children are dismissed to go with a parent to the lobby to meet their Children's Worship leader.  If it is your first visit please go with your child so you know where to pick him/her up immediately following the service.  Children's Worship time ministers to a child's need to hear an age-appropriate Bible message the parental and congregational need to focus on the pulpit Word.  This age-appropriate worship experience is offered year-round for 3 year olds (by September 15 of the school year) thru 2nd grade at the Bridge campus and for 3 year olds (by September 15 of the school year) thru 3rd grade at the Meredith Drive campus.

What happens after the worship service?
We provide a coffee bar in the lobby of each campus and encourage all to linger to get acquainted and chat.  


What about my older children?
