Music: Can we have music as part of the service?
Yes. We encourage you to identify two or three Christian songs or hymns that are meaningful to you or your loved one. We can then play those songs over the sound system as part of the service. If you'd like live music and want to use one of the professionals from our worship team, the cost is $150. If you have a few non-religious songs that are meaningful to you or your loved one, we recommend playing them as people are entering or exiting the service. If you would like a family member or friend to perform a song during the service, we can provide the necessary microphones and sound equipment. A keyboard/piano in our Chapel is also available for your use at no charge. 
Photographs/Memorabilia: Can we display photographs or memorabilia at the service?
Yes. If you bring photographs arranged on picture boards, we can supply easels to display them in the lobby. You are welcome to use our decorative display tables with glass overlays to protect your loose photographs. The tables are ideal for displaying framed photographs and memorabilia, as well. All memorabilia and photos must be delivered to the church at least 24 hours prior to the service.
