Just as Jesus is irresistible, the local church should be irresistible. People should want to go to church! Our desire is to create a church that would be people’s number one option each weekend; first, because of what we do and ultimately because of what we believe.Coastlinechurch.tv meets for our weekly Celebration Service each Saturday evening at 6 PM and offers a contemporary style of worship. It is not uncommon for worshipers to join together in singing songs that would be familiar to anyone who regularly listens to contemporary Christian radio. In addition to exploring a relevant, Bible-based message, the people of Coastline also take time to celebrate Communion each time we are together!Designed with guests in mind, our goal is that each one who comes to worship with Coastline on any given weekend would find our larger gathering both engaging and enjoyable and would return.While adults meet in together in the spacious school cafeteria at T.M. Clark Elementary, parents are given the option of allowing their children under the age of two to go to the attended nursery. Students up through the 5th grade take part in learning activities in the school gym, while those in grades 6-8 meet in their own small group.

Dinner Club is a monthly gathering of families to meet and eat! In this casual environment, relationships are strengthened and everyone who participates has a chance to learn a little more about others in the church. Here’s how it works:Ideally, 2 or 3 families form a “group” and agree to host at least 2 other families each month for a meal. It’s that simple! The details of each gathering (where you meet, who brings which food item, etc.) are largely left to the group to decide. Each meeting consists of sharing a meal, allowing someone in the group to tell their story, and then praying together. The goal is to begin to build community with others in a setting other than a weekend Celebration Service. Additionally, the Coastline Church office can provide names and contact information each month of families whom you may consider inviting.To get started, form your “group” and let us know who is in it by either sending an email to office@coastlinechurch.tv or calling 643-4545. From there, all you have to do is let us know who is attending your “Dinner Club” each month, so that we may involve as many as possible as quickly as possible!

One Way Ministry is our weekly environment for TWEENS (6th – 8th grade) and meets Saturday evenings at 6PM.
