CAMPUS MAPS

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Accessibility

While work is underway on the Sanctuary, the accessible entrances will be the Upper and Lower Porticos, both with ramps and automatic doors. Both of these entrances are on the Ridgefield Road side of the church. Accessible and visitor spaces will be designated in the lower lot (see campus map above).

Parking

Additional accessible spaces are being added in the lower parking lot and six accessible spaces will remain in the upper lot. Visitor parking spaces will move to the lower lot for easy access to the Upper Room. We do not anticipate that contractor vehicles or materials staging will affect the number of parking spaces available on Sundays.

When parking in the neighborhood surrounding the church, please observe parking signs and be considerate of homeowners.

Adult Sunday School

Four new classes begin April 24, with additional offerings starting in May. Visit the Adult Discipleship page for full information. See the map above for class locations.

Hearing Assistance

Hearing assistance devices will be available in the Upper Room.

Coffee

Coffee will continue to be served in Halverson Hall after both services and during the Sunday School hour.

Music

First Service at 8:00 a.m. will include special music by soloists and ensembles, vocal and/or instrumental.

Second Service at 11:00 a.m. will continue to include the Sanctuary Choir. At special services such as Easter or when a brass ensemble is present, the Choir will sing at both services. Both organ and piano will be utilized for worship services in the Upper Room.

Hymnals and Bibles will be available in the Upper Room on a self-service basis. Please pick up your hymnal from the racks at the sides of the room on your way in and return it on your way out. Bring your own Bible if possible, or pick one up from the racks to share as needed.

The Family Room (Room 210)

We welcome and encourage parents and children to attend services and worship together. If you should need to take your children out, you may take them to the Family Room to care for them and continue to follow the service via the TV in the room. To get to Room 210, exit the Upper Room via either of the stairwells near the restrooms. Ushers will be happy to direct you as well.

Livestream

The 11:00 a.m. service will be livestreamed. Visit 4thpres.org/livestream.

Face Masks

Part of the Ridgefield Road alcove (front of the room, right side) will be designated as a masks-required section for those who prefer to wear face masks. The section will be clearly labeled.

Media Center

The Media Center is closed and will remain so while the Halverson Hall bathrooms and parts of the Media Center/Library are remodeled.
