WHAT TO EXPECT
Sundays
Mount Carmel is a church made up of people of all ages with a variety of backgrounds. We offer two worship services every Sunday morning:
Contemporary Service 9:00am in the Fellowship Hall
During our contemporary service, a praise band plays contemporary Christian music. The sermon is relevant and engaging. Dress tends to be casual. All are welcome. There is an American Sign Language interpreter available during this service.
Traditional Service 11:00am in the Sanctuary Building
The traditional service takes place in the church’s beautiful Sanctuary. Worship music features a choir accompanied by piano, organ, and occasional hand bells. Well-loved hymns are sung. The sermon is identical to that preached during The Altar. Dress tends to be more formal. All are welcome.
At both services, there is a brief time of offering but no one is required to give. Communion is regularly scheduled several times a year. Baptism is performed upon request.
The church merges together for combined worship quarterly and for the many activities the church offers on a weekly basis.
Classes 10:00am-11:00am

Children and Youth
Mount Carmel is a great place for children and youth! Our kids range in age from infants to high school students. On Sunday mornings we offer a staffed nursery and classes at 10:00am. Children and youth also participate in Sunday evening activities. Learn more about our children and youth programs here.
Wednesdays
Every Wednesday at 5:30pm, our church shares a meal together in the Fellowship Hall. Following the meal, we hear an engaging presentation. All are welcome to join us for supper and/or the presentation. Meals are $5 for adults and $2 for kids, and your first meal with us is on the house!
Our Wednesday Night Schedule is as follows:
1st Wednesdays - Grief Oasis Presentation: Educational sessions revolving around the topic of grief.
2nd Wednesdays - Mental Health Presentation: Educational sessions related to mental health.
3rd Wednesdays - Church Missions & Ministries Presentation: Educational sessions related to church missions and ministries.
4th Wednesdays - Church Conference: We conduct church business and receive updates from our deacon groups and committees.

Events
In addition to the numerous fundraisers, children and youth, and missions events we host (including the famous BBQ & Brunswick Stew and the incredible Shepherd's Table Christmas Eve meals), Mount Carmel is known for our annual Homecoming where members and former members near and far join together for a special worship service followed by a potluck, music, and testimony.
