Our address is 801 Historic Route 66, Waynesville, MO 65583. We're located right on Route 66 off I44 next to the middle school.

We have an 8:30am traditional service and 11am contemporary service on Sundays with Sunday School in between at 9:45am. We also have Wednesdays at Westside on Wednesday nights at 5:30pm with a meal and small groups after for all ages.

You will see people dressed casually in jeans all the way to suits and dresses. We want you to come however you feel comfortable.

YES! We have preschool, kids and student ministries, so we have something for all ages. We only offer childcare during Sunday School and the 11am service, so our volunteers can go to the first service. Check out our next gen pages under the Connect tab.

Both our services last about 60-75 min and have times of music and worship, greeting, announcements, prayer, a mission focus time, a time for giving, the message and invitation to respond. Our traditional service sings traditional hymns from the hymnal, has a small orchestra and usually has a choir special. The contemporary service has a full band and sings a wide range of songs as recent as the last couple years going back to occasionally singing hymns.

We have several parking lots and entrances. We have a 3 parking lots on Route 66 (including the middle school parking lot) and then a back parking lot. We suggest coming in through the atrium entrances at the front or back. This is where our welcome desk is, and where we can help you with any questions you might have.
