Walking into a church for the first time can bring a lot of questions. What will the service be like? Will there be something for your children? How do you begin getting to know people? Having a little information before you arrive can make that first visit feel more comfortable.

Whether you are new to De Pere, looking for a church home, or returning to church after some time away, a Sunday visit is an opportunity to listen, learn, and meet others. You can take that first step without having everything figured out.

At Christ The Rock Church in De Pere, Wisconsin, we gather to worship Jesus, study the Bible, and encourage one another as we grow in faith. Here are a few things to know before you join us.

1. Choose a Sunday Service

Our Sunday worship services begin at 8:00 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. at 556 Main Avenue in De Pere. Children’s Church is offered at 10:30 a.m., which may help families decide which service to attend.

Consider arriving a little early so you have time to find your way, ask questions, and settle in before worship begins. If you have questions about access to the building or your family’s needs, contact us before your visit.

2. Come Ready to Worship and Listen

Sunday worship gives us time to turn our attention toward God and His Word. Coming together helps us pause from the demands of the week and remember who we follow.

If church is unfamiliar to you, you can begin by listening and observing. You do not need to know every song or understand every reference before you attend. Give yourself room to learn as you become familiar with the gathering.

3. Expect Teaching Rooted in the Bible

The Bible is central to our Sunday services. At Christ The Rock, we teach Scripture chapter by chapter and verse by verse, helping people understand the passages they are reading.

As you listen, consider what the passage reveals about God and how it speaks to everyday life. Bringing a Bible or taking a few notes may help you return to the message during the week. You can also listen to messages on our website before visiting.

4. Learn About Children’s Church

Visiting with children often means thinking through a few extra details. Our Children’s Church uses separate lessons for three age groups, with the Bible at the center of the teaching.

Before your first Sunday, reach out with questions about your child’s age group and how to get started. A short conversation can help you prepare your children and understand what their morning will look like.

Ask where your child’s group meets.

Find out how arrival and pickup work.

Share any needs you would like the ministry team to understand.

5. Take Time to Meet Someone

Finding a church home takes more than learning a schedule. It also involves getting to know the people you will worship alongside. Introducing yourself before or after a service can be a simple place to begin.

You do not need to meet everyone on your first Sunday. Start with a conversation, ask a question, or share what brought you to Christ The Rock. Relationships often grow through small conversations repeated over time.

6. Explore a Next Step at Your Own Pace

After your first visit, think about what would help you learn more. You might return for another Sunday, listen to a message online, or ask about a Bible study.

Our weekly gatherings offer opportunities to keep learning and build connections beyond Sunday morning. Review the weekly schedule and contact us if you would like help choosing where to begin.
