Visiting a church for the first time can be intimidating, so here are a few common questions and their answers that will hopefully make your vist more comfortable!

When are your worship services?

We have two services that you can attend on Sundays, one at 8:30 AM and one at 10:15 AM.

Is there a difference between the two services?

Our first service has a more "traditional" feel to it, wherein we sing more hymns and choruses accompanied by piano and/or organ.  Our second service utilizes current praise & worship music led by a worship band.  People of all ages attend both services. 

What do people wear?

At FCC, we don't think that an authentic worship experience has anything to do with what you are wearing.  We think you should be comfortable. On any given Sunday you will see people wearing anything from suits, ties and dresses to jeans, shorts, and flip-flops and everything in between! 

Is there something for my kids?

Absolutely!  Nursery is available for infants and toddlers during both services.  During the second service, We have POWER SOURCE, an opportunity for children to worship kid-style!  Lessons are taught in a kid-friendly manner and life applications apply to the children at their level.  You can check out our children's ministry page for more information. 

Where are you located?

We are located on Willmar Ave SW, between 8th and 9th Streets, right across the street from Hodapp football field. 

What does it mean to be "Covenant"? 

On one level, the answer is quite simple. When new members join a Covenant church, they are asked two questions about belief: “Do you confess Jesus Christ as your Savior and promise to follow him as Lord?” and “Do you accept the Holy Scriptures, the Old and New Testaments, as the word of God and the only perfect rule for faith, doctrine, and conduct?” They are then asked if they intend to live as faithful followers of Christ and members of the church and denomination.  That’s all. That is enough.  But on another level, of course, the answer is a good deal more complex. While the Covenant Church does not require adherence to any written creed, we take our theology very seriously, and our history as well. We are a Reformation church, a part of the Church universal, and an evangelical church. In that heritage, we share certain central beliefs, which draw us together in faith and fellowship and make possible a freedom among us on more widely ranging issues.
