Visit a Local Church
Would you like to visit a local English church?
By visiting you can learn American culture, listen to the Christian music, meet Americans, have English listening practice and learn about the Bible, God, & Jesus Christ.
Churches are very friendly places! Churches are always open to visitors. We can easily give you a ride to the church that we are attending. We will pick you up at your apartment and give you a ride. Churches usually start at 9 or 10 or 11 am. See the exact starting time below of each church service. They last usually 1-2 hours with some singing time and a teaching time (sermon).
Some students ask if you have to be a Christian to go to church? The answer is "no". Many people visit church or attend regularly just to learn about God, positive values, and good ideas. The decision to believe in & follow God is a personal one. Going to church can help you to understand more about the Christian faith.
These churches welcome you to visit them anytime. Please call or email the contact person if you need a ride, have a question, or want directions.
