Office Hours
Monday – Friday, 8:30 a.m. – 4:30p.m.

Sunday Morning Parking
When you arrive on Sunday morning, you may choose to park in one of three main lots. Two of these will be to your left and right as you enter at the front of the building. These lots fill up quickly so you may wish to arrive 15 minutes before the service starts to find a spot. The third parking lot is located behind the building and is convenient for parents with children – our Children’s Ministry volunteers will be there to help you find Sunday school classrooms and the nursery.

Handicap parking is located along both sides of the building.

On many special occasions (Christmas, Easter) parking lot attendants will help you navigate the lots, and shuttle buses will take you to and from satellite parking areas.

Worship Services
We have two main Sunday morning services, Worship Alive at 9:00 a.m. and Live at Eleven at 11:00 a.m. These two services take place in the main auditorium. The style of worship at the first service draws on elements from the vibrant history of traditional worship, including a balanced mix of hymns and choruses, and a variety of instruments – from organ to guitar. At Live at Eleven, a praise band and singers will lead you in contemporary singing. Each service is generally 60 minutes long and includes worship through song, prayer, and giving, as well as a teaching time. The first Sunday of the month, we celebrate the Lord’s Table together.

We also have a number of Sunday morning services and programs for children, youth, and seniors:

9:00 A.M. (birth to grade 5) – 9:00 a.m., west wing & lower level

11:00 A.M. (birth to grade 5) – 11:00 a.m., west wing & lower level

YOUTH (grades 6-12) – 9:00 a.m., room 180

Learning Communities (Adult Education) – 9:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m.

The Gathering (55+ Fellowship) – 10:30 a.m., Fellowship Hall

Hosting and Touchpoint Ministry
Hosts at the auditorium doors will hand you a bulletin that outlines the order of service for the day.

At the end of each service, a team of men and women wearing red lanyards are available for prayer or encouragement. These safe and caring individuals are part of our TouchPoint team. You can meet them at the front of the auditorium, near the stage.

Dress
Our church family is large and its members are of a wide range of ages and backgrounds. The pastors and worship leaders usually dress in conservative ‘business casual’ attire on stage, but you’ll find people at Grant dressed in everything from blue jeans to business suits.

Welcome Centre
On your first visit, we invite you to stop by our Welcome Centre, located in the South Hall. Our friendly volunteers will be there to answer your questions about Grant, and you can enjoy some coffee and refreshments.

Information Centre
Feeling lost? Visit the information desk in the South Hall. Our volunteers will point you in the right direction. At each entrance/exit you’ll also find newsstands featuring the Event Guide, a regularly updated guide to life in our community.

Comment Cards
The Sunday worship bulletin contains a perforated comment card. If you’d like us to send you information on any of our ministry areas, fill out a card and drop it in the offering basket. There is also a place for your comments or prayer requests.

Welcome to the Children’s Ministry of Grant Memorial! Perhaps you’re wondering what to expect on a Sunday morning? Let me walk you through the steps...

Step 1: ARRIVAL
Friendly hosts at each of our entrances will direct you to the Children’s Ministry wing. There is also child-friendly signage that will direct you to the nursery and preschool areas. Once you arrive, you will be greeted by a receptionist who will assist you in signing your child into Grant Kids.

9:00 a.m. (Worship Alive) – the receptionist desk opens at 8:45 a.m.
11:00 a.m. (Live at Eleven) – children can be signed in beginning at 10:45 a.m.

Step 2: CHECK-IN
Your child’s safety is of utmost concern to us. We use a two-tag check-in procedure to ensure a safe and secure pick-up and drop-off routine. You will receive two nametags displaying your child’s name, one for yourself and one to be placed prominently on your child’s clothing. On each tag will be a corresponding number so that you can be paged in the Auditorium if your child needs you.

Step 3: YOUR CHILD’S SUNDAY EXPERIENCE
The receptionist will introduce your child to his or her teacher who will in turn introduce your child to his or her peers.

Step 4: PICK-UP
Once the service is over, you will be greeted by the same friendly receptionist as you pick up your child.
