I'M NEW HERE

What can I expect?

Going anywhere new for the first time can be confusing and even a little intimidating. At RRBC we will help you feel right at home. Whether you are attending Sunday School, worship, or both, the best place to enter the building is through our sanctuary doors beneath the steeple. During both Sunday School and worship there will be ushers and greeters who will get you to anywhere you desire to be.

In Sunday School, we have nursery, classes for children, youth, and young adults. For adults, we have couples' classes, singles' classes, classes that are more discussion oriented and classes that follow more of a lecture format. In worship, you can expect a traditional service with hymns, special music, and Bible-based preaching - what many of our folks describe as “the way it used to be”. While many congregations are moving toward a more contemporary worship service, we concentrate on fellowship, unity, and making disciples. Our style is not nearly as important as our worship experience.

What time should I arrive?

If you are visiting our church for the Sunday School hour, the easiest place to enter the church is through our sanctuary doors directly beneath the steeple. From 9:25-9:50 we have greeters who will welcome you and help you find Sunday School classes that will fit the needs of everyone in your entire family and escort you to your class(es).

If you are planning on being our guest for the 11:00AM worship service, you should plan on arriving between 10:45-10:55 and as you enter through the sanctuary doors you will be welcomed by our ushers who will give you a bulletin, answer any questions you might have, find restrooms, and help you according to your specific needs.

Where should I park?

Parking directly in front of the sanctuary steps is reserved for seniors and handicapped worshippers. If you are on Robinhood Road facing the building, the parking lot on the right gives you the easiest access to the sanctuary. The left side parking lot leads down to our fellowship hall entrance, and parking is available in that area as well.

Where do my children go?

If you are visiting Sunday School, we have classes for everyone. Our Preschool department is for children birth to Pre-K. We also have Kindergarten through 2nd grade and 3rd through 5th grade classes.  Youth middle school classes are 6th to 8th grade followed by youth high school which is 9th to 12th grade.   If you enter the sanctuary doors beneath the steeple our Sunday School greeters will make sure you get to the right classes.

If you are visiting worship, you may take your children 2 years of age and younger to our nursery. Our ushers will answer any questions you may have and escort you to our nursery area.  You will be asked to sign in and receive a pager that allows us to reach you in case the need may arise.  You are also welcomed to keep your children in the sanctuary with you. All we ask is that if the children become disruptive to please remove them from the service. Children ages 3-3rd grade are invited to participate in “Pastors Pals” led by our Minister to Families. They will worship with the family until the mid-point of the service, at which time our Pastor will dismiss them to go to their Children’s Church classrooms.  Ushers can tell you where to pick up your children after the service.  If you plan to have your child go to Children's Church, please visit us in the lobby of the sanctuary as you enter and sign in to receive a pager in case a need may arise.  If you forget to get a pager upon entering, you will have another opportunity when our music minister invites everyone to greet one another.  This is a perfect time to slip into the lobby where someone will be waiting to sign you in and give you a pager.  To provide a safe and loving environment, all of our children and youth workers must read and sign our children and youth protection policy, complete training given throughout the year, and submit to a background check.  We take our responsibility very seriously to make sure your precious children are safe and secure as they learn more about God.
