What to expect

Atmosphere

One of our goals at Appleton Christian Church is to provide a warm and welcoming atmosphere to everyone who comes through our doors. Whether you have attended church your whole life, or this week will be your first time, you will be greeted with warm handshakes and friendly hellos. Before the service begins, please enjoy a cup of coffee as you browse our Welcome Center.


Worship Services

All of our worship services have a relaxed and informal feel. We begin by singing songs of praise and thanksgiving to God. At Appleton Church we do not use one particular "style" of music. We sing a variety of songs including hymns and choruses, led by teams of volunteer singers and usually accompanied by guitar or piano.


We partake of Communion on a weekly basis, and practice an "open" communion. If you are a believer in Jesus Christ and have trusted in Him as your Lord and Savior, you may partake of Communion. You do not have to be a member of our church.


First-time visitors can fill out a cookie voucher card and will be delivered cookies with a brief visit from Pastor Dan.
