About Creekside
We exist to worship Jesus.
At Creekside Church, our values and beliefs keep us focused on making disciples of Jesus of all ages and all walks of life.
Learn about Creekside Church
We're a non-denominational church that believes in the transformative power of the Gospel. We emphasize the importance of genuine community, where every individual is valued and supported. Our pastors are dedicated to teaching the Bible book by book, verse by verse in order to equip believers with understanding of God's timeless wisdom and truth.
We differ from most churches in that we don't have a "senior" pastor but a team of pastors who work together to lead, teach, and minister. Our deacons serve the body using their gifts to be the hands and feet of Christ to the church.
Join us as we trust and follow Jesus, bear one another's burdens, unpack the richness of the Scriptures, and experience the transformative power of God's work in our lives.
OUR CORE VALUES.
Gospel as our Center
Jesus as our Savior
Word as our Foundation
Worship as our Response
Relationship as our Heartbeat
Mission as our Calling
Prayer as our Lifeline
WHAT WE BELIEVE.

What do you offer for my kids?We offer Creekside Kids (birth through 5th grade) every Sunday during all of our services. Check-in begins 15 minutes prior to each service in the lobby under the "tree" and you'll pick you kids up right after the main service ends. We also offer a private mother’s room with a rocking chair and changing table by the restrooms in the lobby. ​ On Wednesdays during the school year, Creekside Students (middle & high school) and Camp Creekside (kids birth through 5th grade) have a meal at 5:30 pm on the porch then meet at 6:30 pm.

Do you have coffee?Before and between each service, we offer complimentary homemade cold brew, hot coffee & hot tea as well as breakfast foods on the porch.

Where do I park?Our main paved parking lot is to the south of the church building. We offer disabled and mobility-impaired parking up front. We also have a large grass parking lot to the west of the church off Newberger Rd with just a short walk or golf cart ride across the pedestrian bridge to the porch.

Where do I go once I get there?Look for the porch! We have welcome tables with people there to answer any questions you have, as well as coffee and food tables. Enter the lobby through the glass doors on the east side of the porch. Kids can be dropped off in the lobby, then go through the double doors on the west side of the lobby to enter the worship center.
