Look for parking in any of our parking areas (see map), and head through our doors to toward the sanctuary on the southeast side of the campus.  On your way, grab some coffee/lemonade and a little snack!  Our greeters are by the sanctuary entrance and are eager to help you find your way to the sanctuary or childcare check-in, or answer any questions.  

We are excited about children joining us and being a part of our worship! (Learn more!) Since we are committed to welcoming your child and keeping him/her safe, please consider sending a message to Becky Odum, Director of Children's Ministries (children@wpcspartanburg.org) to let her know you might be visiting.   

We ask that all children that join us for nursery and Sunday School check-in each Sunday. There are two children's check-in stations located in the church. They are marked by the yellow stars on the map. 

Another safety note: we have a safety officer onsite every Sunday and a team of individuals who monitor our hallways.

Scripture teaches that Jesus gave the Church two sacraments to keep: Baptism and the Lord's Supper.  Our tradition acknowledges that these are signs of a deeper spiritual reality for followers of Christ. 

• Baptism signifies belonging to Christ.  At WPC, both adults and children are baptized, with the understanding that baptism itself does not grant salvation but marks faith—either personal faith or, for children, the faith of their parents. Parents must contact the church or our pastors to schedule this baptism. (Matthew 28:18-20)  
• Communion, also known as the Lord's Supper or the Eucharist, is a sacred meal for those who belong to Christ. By partaking, believers remember Christ’s sacrifice and affirm their place in His New Covenant family. At WPC, Communion is served by intinction—dipping bread into the cup before eating. It is observed on the first Sunday of every month and each Sunday during Lent (7 weeks) and Advent (4 weeks). (1 Corinthians 11:23-29)
  ^1: Children are allowed to partake, although this may be a decision you make as a family since its significance might be too hard for younger children to grasp.  
  ^2: A gluten-free, prepackaged communion kit is available in a basket by the server.

While other traditions practice these two sacraments differently, we believe it is not the manner but the meaning of these actions that matter.  You are welcome to contact us if you have questions about these sacraments.

We believe small groups provide the best ways to begin involvement.  Since we have groups of all types, contact Justin Lewis, Pastor for Smaller Communities for help in finding the right group. (You can also visit our Small Group opportunities and Sunday Morning Adult Bible Studies pages.)
