WHAT TO EXPECT

We want you to feel welcome with an excellent experience! As a guest, you get one of the best parking spots in the lot! Please look for the “visitor parking” signs close to the handicap parking. 


Once our greeters smile and open the door for you, the best place to go is the Welcome Center. It is staffed with knowledgeable volunteers in red shirts. They will be more than happy to answer questions or help you get to where you need to go. Also, be sure to pick up your first-time guest gift bag.


Enjoy a complimentary cup of coffee from Urban Ventures, a local non-profit who provides cradle-to-career support for youth and families in one of Minneapolis’ most under-resourced neighborhoods. Coffee is available in a variety of roasts (both regular and decaffeinated).


Our worship services last approximately 65 minutes. There is singing, prayer, a live message and sometimes a special video.


Communion is also served each week and all those who believe in Jesus as their Savior are welcome to partake. The pastor will guide you in taking the elements.


Connect Cards are handed out as you enter the Worship Center. It is a great way to connect with us, receive information, and to receive prayer. Simply fill out the card and drop it in the red bucket during the offering, later in the service.


Offering will be taken but is meant for those who have made Friendship their home. Feel free to let it pass by if you are a guest and just place the Connect Card inside.


Music is meant to glorify God! We are committed to playing and developing music that is rooted in sound doctrine and that draws people to worship God with their heart, soul and mind. View our Spotify Sunday Playlist.
