I’m New

WHAT TO EXPECT

Walking into a new church for the first time can be intimidating, so we want to help you take that first step with confidence.
Every weekend we come together to connect with one another, praise & worship together, and learn from God’s Word.
It doesn’t matter who you are or what your background is, you can belong at WLAC.
We can’t wait to meet you!

DURING THE SERVICE

We open and close our time together with praise and worship with a time of prayer. We also share about upcoming events and info on ways to stay connected during the week.

Our service will usually include a spoken message that connects the truth of God’s Word with practical issues in everyday life.

MUSIC

The music style at WLAC is what we call Blended. Our desire is to welcome the best expressions of worship that God is inspiring today, while still treasuring some of the traditional music that has been a blessing to God’s people for generations.

Worship is something that transcends music and particular styles, and is foremost an expression of God’s indescribable worth. We want to be a people who bring pleasure to God in all we do by worshiping in spirit and truth (John 4:23).
