What can I expect?
HOW LONG IS A WELLSPRING EXPERIENCE?
In total, a Wellspring Church experience is about 60 minutes in length. Experiences normally begin with the Wellspring band leading the church in energetic music - song lyrics are shown on large TV screens so you can sing along and/or engage with worship however you feel most comfortable. After the music portion of the experience is complete, one of our pastors or leaders will come out to share an encouraging and hope-filled message about Jesus.
WHAT'S THE CULTURE LIKE AT WELLSPRING?
Sundays at Wellspring are exciting, young, and relaxed. Come as you are and expect to feel welcomed as our guest.
WHAT ABOUT MY KIDS?
We believe that kids should have a blast at church every single week - and at Wellspring, we make this a priority. The other thing we make a priority is your children’s safety. Because of that, we have a detailed check-in process for our Well Kids program the first time that you visit. Plus, all of our Well Kids volunteers undergo a background and reference check for your child's safety. You’ll want to leave yourself an extra ten minutes to get signed in for the Well Kids experience. Well Kids ministry is offered at every Experience time for kids ages infant through 5th grade.
"I came to Wellspring after 10+ years of being away from God. Right away, I knew it was something special. The emotion in the room, the atmosphere...it was surreal. I learned that day that church CAN be cool. Jason’s sermon touched me, it spoke volumes (and he wasn’t wearing a robe! *gasp*). And the people were something else too. Friendly, open arms, and I didn’t feel judged. Wellspring wasn’t the kind of church I grew up with. It wasn’t what I was used to. But it was the kind of church I needed." ~Matthew Vlossak

Will I be welcomed at Wellspring?
Wellspring Church welcomes those who are single or married, divorced or engaged, gay or straight. We welcome the filthy rich and dirt poor. We welcome you if English is your second language. We also welcome those who are old as dirt, skinny as a rail, or could afford to lose a few pounds. We welcome you if you are dressed to the nines or only the shirt on your back. We welcome anyone who can sing like Stevie Wonder or who (like our pastor) can’t carry a tune in a bucket. You are welcome here if you are just browsing, just woke up, or just got out of jail. We don’t care if you are holier than Swiss cheese or haven’t been to church since your nephew’s baptism in 1988.
We welcome soccer moms, NASCAR dads, starving artists, tree-huggers, latte-sippers, nose-pickers, tax collectors, veterans, vegetarians, and junk-food junkies. If you blew all your offering money at the casino, you are welcome here. If you are inked, pierced, or both, you are in the right place. If you are in recovery or still addicted, we are happy to see you.
We welcome you because we have experienced the thrill of being welcomed by God. We were once a mess, but God willingly welcomed us through the Cross-stretched arms of Jesus. He gave His life so we could experience real life, receive future hope and be part of His forever family.
God is delighted to see you here!
We are, too!
